Q:

On a sketch of y=ln(x)y=ln(x), represent the left riemann sum with n=2n=2 approximating ∫65ln(x)dx∫56ln(x)dx. write out the terms of the sum, but do not evaluate it:

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: y = f(x) = ln(x) sketch diagram , with 2 rectangles from the left side Sum = area of rectangle 1 + area of rectangle 2 = (1/2)(f(3)+f(3.5)) = ...plug values and calculator 2/ with 2 rectangles from the right side Sum = area of rectangle 1 + area of rectangle 2 = ...
