Question

approximate the integral 0 to pi/2 xsin(x)dx by computing the Left and Right sums, using the parition (0, pi/6, pi/4, pi/3, pi/2).

Answer 1

approximate the integral 0 to pi/2 xsin(x)dx by computing the Left and Right sums, using the parition (0, pi/6, pi/4, pi/3, pi/2).

Answer 2

that doesnt appear to be a consistent partition

Answer 3

?

Answer 4

that's ok, you're still adding areas of rectangles right?

Answer 5

each width needs to be calculated on it own merits; its not uniform across the interval

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

find the values of f(x) at each point indicated by the partition

Answer 8

yeah

Answer 9

keep going please

Answer 10

determine the width of each interval
