I understood the last one but now I have one that makes me solve for a short side

1. Using the trapezoidal rule, you get
gives the rate at which the water flows, so if you integrate with respect to time, you get the actual amount of water. In the summation above, the differences between successive 
's form the heights of the trapezoids, while the successive values of form the "bases" of the trapezoids for which you take the averages.
