OpenStudy (chris215):

i got 68

OpenStudy (irishboy123):

did you forget to divide by 2 do the actual integral to get a good steer

OpenStudy (chris215):

ohh so 34?

OpenStudy (chris215):

this is what i did: 2(f(1)+f(2)+f(3)) = 2(15+12+7) = 68

OpenStudy (freckles):

why do you have the base length is 2?

OpenStudy (freckles):

what happens when you divide the interval from x=0 to x=3 into 3 sub-intervals of equal length?

OpenStudy (freckles):

how long are each of the sub-intervals?

OpenStudy (chris215):

Δx=3−0/3=1 Δx(f(0)+f(1)+f(2)) 1(16+15+12)=43

OpenStudy (freckles):

yes that is an upper approximation to the area you could also get a lower approximation to the area if you used your earlier sum times 1 that is lower sum= 1(15+12+7) upper sum=1(16+15+12)

OpenStudy (chris215):

oh ok so it is 34 bc i need lower
