Split up the interval [0, 2] into 4 subintervals, so that

[0,2]=\left[0,\dfrac12\right]\cup\left[\dfrac12,1\right]\cup\left[1,\dfrac32\right]\cup\left[\dfrac32,2\right]

Each subinterval has width \dfrac{2-0}4=\dfrac12. The area of the trapezoid constructed on each subinterval is \dfrac{f(x_i)+f(x_{i+1})}4, i.e. the average of the values of x^2 at both endpoints of the subinterval times 1/2 over each subinterval [x_i,x_{i+1}].

So,

\displaystyle\int_0^2x^2\,\mathrm dx\approx\dfrac{0^2+\left(\frac12\right)^2}4+\dfrac{\left(\frac12\right)^2+1^2}4+\dfrac{1^2+\left(\frac32\right)^2}4+\dfrac{\left(\frac32\right)^2+2^2}4

=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^4\frac{\left(\frac{i-1}2\right)^2+\left(\frac i2\right)^2}4=\frac{11}4

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to create and algebraic equation for when Jill's weight will be equal to Paris's. If we take their current weight and then add the additional weight gain per month times the number of months, we can calculate the amount of time it will take for their weight to be equal by solving for m.

120+10m=150+4m\\10m-4m=150-120\\6m=30\\m=5
