I don't usually do calculus on Brainly and I'm pretty rusty but this looked interesting.
We have to turn K into the limits of integration on our integrals.
Clearly 0 is the lower limit for all three of x, y and z.
Now we have to incorporate
x+y+z ≤ 1
Let's do the outer integral over x. It can go the full range from 0 to 1 without violating the constraint. So the upper limit on the outer integral is 1.
Next integral is over y. y ≤ 1-x-z. We haven't worried about z yet; we have to conservatively consider it zero here for the full range of y. So the upper limit on the middle integration is 1-x, the maximum possible value of y given x.
Similarly the inner integral goes from z=0 to z=1-x-y
We've transformed our integral into the more tractable
For the inner integral we get to treat x like a constant.
Let's expand that as a polynomial in y for the next integration,
The middle integration is
Expanding, that's
so our outer integral is
That one's easy enough that we can skip some steps; we'll integrate and plug in x=1 at the same time for our answer (the x=0 part doesn't contribute).
That's a surprise. You might want to check it.
