Answer:
<h3>Explanation:
1.) Rewrite √24 = Rewrite √54 =
Divide both terms by the denominator; √6 cancels. 2-3 = -1
2.) Rewrite as ×
The 3's cancel. 10/2 = 5√2 in the numerator.
√5 × √5 = 5 in the denominator. The 5's cancel.
That leaves √2 ≈1.4142
3.) Divide the terms in the numerator by the term in the denominator.
√2's cancel. 10π/2 = 5π 8π/2 = 4π
Subtract and we are left with π = 3.14159
4.) The square roots are reciprocals. They multiply to 1
We are left with π × π = π² ≈ 9.8696

First, recall that Gaussian quadrature is based around integrating a function over the interval [-1,1], so transform the function argument accordingly to change the integral over [1,5] to an equivalent one over [-1,1].
So,
Let
. With 
, we're looking for coefficients 
and nodes

You can either try solving for each with the help of a calculator, or look up the values of the weights and nodes (they're extensively tabulated, and I'll include a link to one such reference).
Using the quadrature, we then have
