Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the given height equation, which is a quadratic) has a graph that opens downward.  Borrowing the quadratic formula, we find the roots of this equation, that is, the t values at which h(t) = 0:

The coefficients of this equation are a = -16, b = 80 and c = 0.

We need to find the roots of this quadratic.  By the quadratic formula,

      -(80) ±√(80² - 4(-16)(0) )         -80 ± 0

t = ------------------------------------- = ----------------- = -5/2 and -5/2 (seconds).

                 2(-16)                               -32

The initial height is 0 at t = 0 seconds and the final height 0 at 5/2 seconds.

Which definite integral approximation formula is this: the integral from a to b of f(x)dx ≈ (b-a)/n * [<img src="https://tex.z-d
Stella [2.4K]

The answer is most likely A.

The integration interval [<em>a</em>, <em>b</em>] is split up into <em>n</em> subintervals of equal length (so each subinterval has width (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>, same as the coefficient of the sum of <em>y</em> terms) and approximated by the area of <em>n</em> rectangles with base (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em> and height <em>y</em>.

<em>n</em> subintervals require <em>n</em> + 1 points, with

<em>x</em>₀ = <em>a</em>

<em>x</em>₁ = <em>a</em> + (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>

<em>x</em>₂ = <em>a</em> + 2(<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>

and so on up to the last point <em>x</em> = <em>b</em>. The right endpoints are <em>x</em>₁, <em>x</em>₂, … etc. and the height of each rectangle are the corresponding <em>y </em>'s at these endpoints. Then you get the formula as given in the photo.

• "Average rate of change" isn't really relevant here. The AROC of a function <em>G(x)</em> continuous* over an interval [<em>a</em>, <em>b</em>] is equal to the slope of the secant line through <em>x</em> = <em>a</em> and <em>x</em> = <em>b</em>, i.e. the value of the difference quotient

(<em>G(b)</em> - <em>G(a)</em> ) / (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)

If <em>G(x)</em> happens to be the antiderivative of a function <em>g(x)</em>, then this is the same as the average value of <em>g(x)</em> on the same interval,

g_{\rm ave}=\dfrac{G(b)-G(a)}{b-a}=\dfrac1{b-a}\displaystyle\int_a^b g(x)\,\mathrm dx

(* I'm actually not totally sure that continuity is necessary for the AROC to exist; I've asked this question before without getting a particularly satisfying answer.)

• "Trapezoidal rule" doesn't apply here. Split up [<em>a</em>, <em>b</em>] into <em>n</em> subintervals of equal width (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>. Over the first subinterval, the area of a trapezoid with "bases" <em>y</em>₀ and <em>y</em>₁ and "height" (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em> is

(<em>y</em>₀ + <em>y</em>₁) (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>

but <em>y</em>₀ is clearly missing in the sum, and also the next term in the sum would be

(<em>y</em>₁ + <em>y</em>₂) (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>

the sum of these two areas would reduce to

(<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em> = (<em>y</em>₀ + <u>2</u> <em>y</em>₁ + <em>y</em>₂)

which would mean all the terms in-between would need to be doubled as well to get

\displaystyle\int_a^b f(x)\,\mathrm dx\approx\frac{b-a}n\left(y_0+2y_1+2y_2+\cdots+2y_{n-1}+y_n\right)
