Answer:
(a) 120 square units (underestimate)
(b) 248 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>(a) left sum</u>
See the attachment for a diagram of the areas being summed (in orange). This is the sum of the first 4 table values for f(x), each multiplied by 2 (the width of the rectangle). Quite clearly, the curve is above the rectangle for the entire interval, so the rectangle area underestimates the area under the curve.
left sum = 2(1 + 5 + 17 + 37) = 2(60) = 120 . . . . square units
<u>(b) right sum</u>
The right sum is the sum of the last 4 table values for f(x), each multiplied by 2 (the width of the rectangle). This sum is ...
right sum = 2(5 +17 + 37 +65) = 2(124) = 248 . . . . square units
Answer:
geometric sequence
Step-by-step explanation:
A geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers that is ordered with a specific pattern. Each successive number is the product of the previous number and a constant. The constant is the same for every term in the sequence and is called the common ratio.
Answer:
the y intercept is 5 because the line passes through 5 on the y axis. Now to find the slope, pick two points where the line hits directly on the corner of the grid squares. pIck 2 of those and count the squares up till you are lined up with your other point then count over and get another number. Put the number going up over the number going down like x/y and you'll have your answer. ( simplify it if you can.(-2,3) and (0,5) are a good place to start. The answer should be 2/3. Hope this helped and God bless!
