please helpp. This problem makes no sense http://prntscr.com/9rxt3a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont understand the notation one bit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is a summation, adding that stuff up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the \(\frac{2}{n}\) tells you that the length off the interval is \(2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the \(5\) at the beginning tells you that \(x_0=5\) i.e you are starting at \(5\) as the lower limit of integration

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the function itself is pretty obvious what is everything raised to the power of?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

btw don't be put off by that notation, the sigma is just a big fat plus sign \[\sum_{n=1}^4 2k=2+4+6+8\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is an integral from 5 to 7 but I dont see how to pull the original function out of the notation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thats what loses me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i will tell you the exponent is 10 so it is just \(x^{10}\) that is all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:O I feel dumb

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you though. Makes it easier to look at. Before it looked straight chinese
