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:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let length = y width = x
y = 3x + 2
Perimeter = Sum of all sides (or sum of both lengths and both widths)
2y + 2x
2(3x + 2) + 2x
6x + 4 + 2x
8x + 4
First, we need to solve for the common ratio from the data given by using the equation.
a(n) = a(1) r^(n-1)
15 = -3 r^(2-1)
-5 = r
r = -5
Then, we can find the sum by the expression:
S(n) = a(1) ( 1 - r^n) / 1-r
S(8) = -3 (1 + 5^8) / 1+5
S(8) = -195313
