____ consists of expressing the area as the sum of areas of smaller segments.
A) The derivative
B) Rooting
C) Numerical differentiation
D) Numerical integration

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is the definition of numerical integration, which involves approximating the area under a curve by breaking it into smaller segments and summing them up. The other options, such as the derivative (A), rooting (B), and numerical differentiation (C), do not involve breaking down an area into smaller segments. Numerical integration involves approximating the area under a curve by dividing it into smaller segments and summing their areas. This is commonly done using methods such as the trapezoidal rule or Simpson's rule. The other options (derivative, rooting, numerical differentiation) do not involve expressing the area as the sum of smaller segments.
