What is the slope of the line shown below? (Enter your answer as a decimal if nessecary)

Use the Trapezoidal Rule, the Midpoint Rule, and Simpson's Rule to approximate the given integral with the specified value of n.

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Split up the integration interval into 4 subintervals:

$\left[0,\dfrac\pi8\right],\left[\dfrac\pi8,\dfrac\pi4\right],\left[\dfrac\pi4,\dfrac{3\pi}8\right],\left[\dfrac{3\pi}8,\dfrac\pi2\right]$

The left and right endpoints of the $i$ -th subinterval, respectively, are

$\ell_i=\dfrac{i-1}4\left(\dfrac\pi2-0\right)=\dfrac{(i-1)\pi}8$

$r_i=\dfrac i4\left(\dfrac\pi2-0\right)=\dfrac{i\pi}8$

for $1\le i\le4$ , and the respective midpoints are

$m_i=\dfrac{\ell_i+r_i}2=\dfrac{(2i-1)\pi}8$

Trapezoidal rule

We approximate the (signed) area under the curve over each subinterval by

$T_i=\dfrac{f(\ell_i)+f(r_i)}2(\ell_i-r_i)$

so that

$\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/2}\frac3{1+\cos x}\,\mathrm dx\approx\sum_{i=1}^4T_i\approx\boxed{3.038078}$

Midpoint rule

We approximate the area for each subinterval by

$M_i=f(m_i)(\ell_i-r_i)$

so that

$\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/2}\frac3{1+\cos x}\,\mathrm dx\approx\sum_{i=1}^4M_i\approx\boxed{2.981137}$

Simpson's rule

We first interpolate the integrand over each subinterval by a quadratic polynomial $p_i(x)$ , where

$p_i(x)=f(\ell_i)\dfrac{(x-m_i)(x-r_i)}{(\ell_i-m_i)(\ell_i-r_i)}+f(m)\dfrac{(x-\ell_i)(x-r_i)}{(m_i-\ell_i)(m_i-r_i)}+f(r_i)\dfrac{(x-\ell_i)(x-m_i)}{(r_i-\ell_i)(r_i-m_i)}$

so that

$\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/2}\frac3{1+\cos x}\,\mathrm dx\approx\sum_{i=1}^4\int_{\ell_i}^{r_i}p_i(x)\,\mathrm dx$

It so happens that the integral of $p_i(x)$ reduces nicely to the form you're probably more familiar with,

$S_i=\displaystyle\int_{\ell_i}^{r_i}p_i(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{r_i-\ell_i}6(f(\ell_i)+4f(m_i)+f(r_i))$

Then the integral is approximately

$\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/2}\frac3{1+\cos x}\,\mathrm dx\approx\sum_{i=1}^4S_i\approx\boxed{3.000117}$

Compare these to the actual value of the integral, 3. I've included plots of the approximations below.

Ian has 120 folders to file. So far, he has filed 36 of the folders. What percent of the folders does he have left to file?

balandron [24]

120-36 = 84 <==== what he has left

84/120×100% = percentage of what he has left
70% = percentage aka answer.
