Answer:

Line segments have two endpoints and a vertex is a common endpoint where two line segments meet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A line segment is defined as a portion of a line that has two endpoints.

A vertex is defined as the common endpoint of two or more rays or line segments.

1. The four subintervals are [0, 2], [2, 3], [3, 7], and [7, 8]. We construct trapezoids with "heights" equal to the lengths of each subinterval - 2, 1, 4, and 1, respectively - and the average of the corresponding "bases" equal to the average of the values of $R(t)$ at the endpoints of each subinterval. The sum is then

$\dfrac{R(0)+R(2)}2(2-0)+\dfrac{R(2)+R(3)}2(3-2)+\dfrac{R(3)+R(7)}2(7-3)+\dfrac{R(7)+R(8)}2(7-8)=\boxed{24.83}$

which is measured in units of gallons, hence representing the amount of water that flows into the tank.

2. Since $R$ is differentiable, the mean value theorem holds on any subinterval of its domain. Then for any interval $[a,b]$ , it guarantees the existence of some $c\in(a,b)$ such that

$\dfrac{R(b)-R(a)}{b-a)=R'(c)$

Computing the difference quotient over each subinterval above gives values of 0.275, 0.3, 0.3, and 0.26. But just because these values are non-zero doesn't guarantee that there is definitely no such $c$ for which $R'(c)=0$ . I would chalk this up to not having enough information.

3. $R(t)$ gives the rate of water flow, and $R(t)\approx W(t)$ , so that the average rate of water flow over [0, 8] is the average value of $W(t)$ , given by the integral

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\frac1{8-0}\int_0^8\ln(t^2+7)\,\mathrm dt$

If doing this by hand, you can integrate by parts, setting

$u=\ln(t^2+7)\implies\mathrm du=\dfrac{2t}{t^2+7}\,\mathrm dt$

$\mathrm dv=\mathrm dt\implies v=t$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\frac18\left(t\ln(t^2+7)\bigg|_{t=0}^{t=8}-\int_0^8\frac{2t^2}{t^2+7}\,\mathrm dt\right)$

For the remaining integral, consider the trigonometric substitution $t=\sqrt 7\tan s$ , so that $\mathrm dt=\sqrt 7\sec^2s\,\mathrm ds$ . Then

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\int_0^{\tan^{-1}(8/\sqrt7)}\frac{7\tan^2s}{7\tan^2s+7}\sec^2s\,\mathrm ds$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\int_0^{\tan^{-1}(8/\sqrt7)}\tan^2s\,\mathrm ds$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\int_0^{\tan^{-1}(8/\sqrt7)}(\sec^2s-1)\,\mathrm ds$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\left(\tan s-s\right)\bigg|_{s=0}^{s=\tan^{-1}(8/\sqrt7)}$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\left(\tan\left(\tan^{-1}\frac8{\sqrt7}\right)-\tan^{-1}\frac8{\sqrt7}\right)$

$\boxed{R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-2+\frac{\sqrt7}4\tan^{-1}\frac8{\sqrt7}}$

or approximately 3.0904, measured in gallons per hour (because this is the average value of $R$ ).

4. By the fundamental theorem of calculus,

$g'(x)=f(x)$

and $g(x)$ is increasing whenever $g'(x)=f(x)>0$ . This happens over the interval (-2, 3), since $f(x)=3$ on [-2, 0), and $-x+3>0$ on [0, 3).

5. First, by additivity of the definite integral,

$\displaystyle\int_{-2}^xf(t)\,\mathrm dt=\int_{-2}^0f(t)\,\mathrm dt+\int_0^xf(t)\,\mathrm dt$

Over the interval [-2, 0), we have $f(x)=3$ , and over the interval [0, 6], $f(x)=-x+3$ . So the integral above is

$\displaystyle\int_{-2}^03\,\mathrm dt+\int_0^x(-t+3)\,\mathrm dt=3t\bigg|_{t=-2}^{t=0}+\left(-\dfrac{t^2}2+3t\right)\bigg|_{t=0}^{t=x}=\boxed{6+3x-\dfrac{x^2}2}$
