I'm going to assume that your function is f(x) = 1 + x^2    (NOT x2).

I suspect you're trying to estimate the "area under the curve of f(x) = 1 + x^2.  You need to use this or a similar description to explain what you're doing.

Also, you need to specify whether you want "left end points" or "right end points" or "midpoints."  Again I must assume you want one or the other (and will assume that you meant "left end points").  

First, let's address the case n=3.  You must graph f(x) = 1 + x^2 between -1 and +1.     We will find the "lower sum," using "left end points."  The 3 x-values are {-1, -1/3, 1/3}.  Evaluate the function f(x) = 1 + x^2 at these 3 x-values.  Keep in mind that the interval width is 2/3.
The function (y) values are {0, 2/3, 4/3}.

Sorry, Michael, but I must stop here and await clarification from you regarding what you've been told to do in this problem.  Otherwise too much guessing (regarding what you meant) is necessary.  Please review the original problem and ensure that you have copied it exactly as presented, and also please verify whether this problem does indeed involve estimating areas under curves between starting and ending x-values.

What's the difference between 126 1/4 78 2/3
Stels [109]
Difference means subtract, so we use subtraction:

*first we need to make the fractions have the same denominator

1/4 = 3/12
2/3 = 8/12

126(3/12) - 78(8/12)
*since the fraction in the first term is smaller than the second, make it improper

125(15/12) - 78(8/12)

now simply subtract:

125 - 78 
= 47

15 - 8 
= 7
* this is now (7/12)

now put them back together:

47(7/12) 

That's the final answer!

The decreasing​ population, p, of owls in a national park is being monitored by ecologists and is modeled by the equation p=−0.
n200080 [17]

By solving a quadratic equation, it can be verified that

The owl population will disappear after 329.12 years

What is a quadratic equation?

At first it is important to know about equation

Equation shows the equality between two algebraic expressions by connecting the two algebraic expressions by an equal to sign.

A two degree equation is known as quadratic equation.

Here, a quadratic equation needs to be solved

The decreasing​ population, p, of owls in a national park is being monitored by ecologists and is modeled by the equation p=-0. 4t^2+128t+1,200

For population to disappear, p =0

-0. 4t^2+128t+1,200 = 0\\0.4t^2 -128t - 1200 = 0\\4t^2 - 1280t - 12000 = 0\\4(t^2 - 320 t - 3000) = 0\\t^2 - 320t -3000 = 0\\t = \frac{-(-320)\pm \sqrt{(-320)^2 - 4 \times 1 \times (-3000)}}{2 \times 1}\\t = \frac{320 \pm 338.23}{2}\\t = \frac{320 + 338.23}{2} \ or \ t = \frac{320 - 338.23}{2}\\t = 329.115 \ or \ t = -9.115

But t = -9.115 is not possible as time cannot be negative

So, the owl population will disappear after 329.12 years
