Homework Help: Calculus - Derivatives

Posted by UMich1344 on Monday, September 29, 2008 at 10:05pm.

The approximation to a definite integral using n=10 is 2.346; the exact value is 4.0. If the approximation was found using each of the following rules, use the same rule to estimate the integral with n=30.

A) Left Rule

B) Trapezoid Rule

The section deals with approximation errors of definite integrals.

The error in the first approximation is 1.654. I'm not sure if that is relevant in this problem, but I imagine it would be since that's the topic of the section.
