Please help me with this calculus question!

OpenStudy (phi):

the first equation is a sphere centered at (0,0,1/2) with radius 1/2. to see this, complete the square on the z variable \[ x^2 + y^2 + z^2 =z \\ x^2 + y^2 + z^2-z +(1/4) = 1/4 \\ x^2+ y^2 + (z-\frac{1}{2})^2 = \frac{1}{4} \] in cylindrical coords, \[ r^2 + \left(z-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{4} \\ r= \sqrt{ \frac{1}{4} -\left(z-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 } \]

OpenStudy (phi):

the second equation is a cone with its apex at the origin \[ z= \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }\sqrt{x^2+y^2} \] in cylindrical coords \[ z = \frac{r}{\sqrt{3} } \\ r = \sqrt{3} \ z \]

OpenStudy (phi):

the composite shape is similar to an ice-cream cone: |dw:1438214470899:dw|
