Triplequad for solving integral

I'm attempting to solve the integral: ∭D dxdydz/(x+y+z+1)^3 where D: x>0,y>0,z>0,x+y+z<2
, specifically with the use of the triplequad command. I'm having trouble determining the constant limits so I wonder if there is a way to allow for triplequad to use bounds that depend upon variables?
If not, is there anyone who happens to be able to determine the constant limits for me :)?
Thanks in advance!

The region of integration in your problem is such that you cannot use constant limits of integration with the triple integral in its present form. You would have to make a change of variables to be able to do that.

I don't believe the 'triplequad' function will accept limits that depend on variables. However the function 'integral3' does accept variable limits for two of its limits. See its documentation at:

Your particular integral is sufficiently simple that you could find its precise value using elementary calculus or the 'int' function in the Symbolic Toolbox instead of using numerical approximations.
