we want 3 rectangles we we want the left endpoint as x=-1 and the right endpoint as x=2 so that means for each rectangle to have equal base length we need to divide [-1,2] equally into 3 rectangles we can do this be evaluating the base length first which is (2-(-1))/3=?

OpenStudy (freckles):

after we find the base length of each rectangle we need to consider the height of each rectangle

OpenStudy (freckles):

so first have you determined the base length yet?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2/3

OpenStudy (freckles):

well 2-(-1) should get 2+1 which is 3 not 2

OpenStudy (freckles):

so (2-(-1))/3=3/3=1 so the base of each rectangle is 1 unit long

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay
