Answer:

Given definite integral as a limit of Riemann sums is:

$\lim_{n \to \infty} \sum^{n} _{i=1}3[\frac{9}{n^{3}}i^{3}+\frac{36}{n^{2}}i^{2}+\frac{97}{2n}i+22]$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given definite integral is:

$\int\limits^7_4 {\frac{x}{2}+x^{3}} \, dx \\f(x)=\frac{x}{2}+x^{3}---(1)\\\Delta x=\frac{b-a}{n}\\\\\Delta x=\frac{7-4}{n}=\frac{3}{n}\\\\x_{i}=a+\Delta xi\\a= Lower Limit=4\\\implies x_{i}=4+\frac{3}{n}i---(2)\\\\then\\f(x_{i})=\frac{x_{i}}{2}+x_{i}^{3}$

Substituting (2) in above

$f(x_{i})=\frac{1}{2}(4+\frac{3}{n}i)+(4+\frac{3}{n}i)^{3}\\\\f(x_{i})=(2+\frac{3}{2n}i)+(64+\frac{27}{n^{3}}i^{3}+3(16)\frac{3}{n}i+3(4)\frac{9}{n^{2}}i^{2})\\\\f(x_{i})=\frac{27}{n^{3}}i^{3}+\frac{108}{n^{2}}i^{2}+\frac{3}{2n}i+\frac{144}{n}i+66\\\\f(x_{i})=\frac{27}{n^{3}}i^{3}+\frac{108}{n^{2}}i^{2}+\frac{291}{2n}i+66\\\\f(x_{i})=3[\frac{9}{n^{3}}i^{3}+\frac{36}{n^{2}}i^{2}+\frac{97}{2n}i+22]$
