Homework Statement
A circular pond with radius 1 metre and a maximum depth of 1 metre has the shape of a paraboloid, so that its depth z is z = x 2 + y 2 − 1. What is the total volume of the pond? How does this compare with the case where the pond has the same radius but has the shape of a hemisphere?

The Attempt at a Solution
\int _{-1}^0\left(\int _{-\sqrt{1-x^2}}^{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\left(\int _{x^2+y^2-1}^0\left(\right)dz\right)dy\right)dx
I was just wondering if this triple integral accurately describes what the question is asking? I searched online but can't find any anything similar.
