Estimate the integral ∫6,0 x^2dx by the midpoint estimate, n = 6

Splitting up the interval [0, 6] into 6 subintervals means we have

[0,1]\cup[1,2]\cup[2,3]\cup\cdots\cup[5,6]

and the respective midpoints are \dfrac12,\dfrac32,\dfrac52,\ldots,\dfrac{11}2. We can write these sequentially as {x_i}^*=\dfrac{2i+1}2 where 0\le i\le5.

So the integral is approximately

\displaystyle\int_0^6x^2\,\mathrm dx\approx\sum_{i=0}^5({x_i}^*)^2\Delta x_i=\frac{6-0}6\sum_{i=0}^5({x_i}^*)^2=\sum_{i=0}^5\left(\frac{2i+1}2\right)^2

Recall that

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^ni^2=\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}6
\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^ni=\frac{n(n+1)}2
\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n1=n

so our sum becomes

\displaystyle\sum_{i=0}^5\left(\frac{2i+1}2\right)^2=\sum_{i=0}^5\left(i^2+i+\frac14\right)
=\displaystyle\frac{5(6)(11)}6+\frac{5(6)}2+\frac54=\frac{143}2

a triangle has an area of 54 m2 and a height of 9m how long is the base of the triangle entered your answer in the box
Delvig [45]
Answer:
base of the triangle = 12 m

Explanation:
Area of the triangle = 1/2 * base * height
We are given that:
area = 54 m^2
height = 9 m

Substitute in the equation to get the base as follows:
Area of the triangle = 1/2 * base * height
54 = 1/2 * base * 9
108 = 9*base
base = 12 m

Hope this helps :)
