**Problem 3:**

Find the volume of the region in the first octant between the sphere of radius 1 centered at the origin and the sphere of radius 9 centered at the origin two ways:

(a) Set up the integral as one triple integral in spherical coordinates and evaluate.

(b) Use geometry.

**Explanation:**

This problem asks for the calculation of a volume in the first octant (the region where \(x, y, z \geq 0\)) that lies between two spheres: a smaller sphere with radius 1 and a larger sphere with radius 9, both centered at the origin. 

**Approach (a): Spherical Coordinates Integration**

- **Spherical Coordinates**: The volume \(V\) can be found using integration in spherical coordinates \( (r, \theta, \phi) \) where:
  - \( r \) is the radius,
  - \( \theta \) is the azimuthal angle in the \(xy\)-plane from the x-axis,
  - \( \phi \) is the polar angle from the z-axis.
- **Integration Limits**:
  - \( r \) ranges from 1 to 9.
  - \(\theta\) ranges from \(0\) to \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) (since it’s the first octant).
  - \(\phi\) ranges from \(0\) to \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) (since it’s the first octant).
- **Integral Setup**: 
  \[
  V = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \int_{1}^{9} r^2 \sin \phi \, dr \, d\phi \, d\theta
  \]

**Approach (b): Geometry**

The volume can also be found by direct geometric methods, understanding that the volume of a sphere sector in the first octant (an eighth of a sphere) can be calculated, and then the volume of the sphere with radius 1 can be subtracted from the sphere with radius 9. 

- **Volume of a Sphere**:
  - Volume of the full sphere is \((\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3)\).
  - Volume of the first octant is \(\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{4}{3
