Question 203
Essay
Let
and compute the Riemann sum of f over the interval
, choosing the representative points to be the left endpoints of the subintervals, using: Two subintervals of equal length (
). __________ sq units Five subintervals of equal length (
). __________ sq units Ten subintervals of equal length (
). __________ sq units Can you guess at the area of the region under the graph of f on the interval
?
__________ sq units
Question 204
Short Answer
Figure (a) shows a vacant lot with a 80-ft frontage in a development. To estimate its area, we introduce a coordinate system so that the x-axis coincides with the edge of the straight road forming the lower boundary of the property, as shown in Figure (b). Then, thinking of the upper boundary of the property as the graph of a continuous function f over the interval [0, 80], we see that the problem is mathematically equivalent to that of finding the area under the graph of f on [0, 80]. To estimate the area of the lot using a Riemann sum, we divide the interval [0, 80] into four equal subintervals of length 20 ft. Then, using surveyor's equipment, we measure the distance from the midpoint of each of these subintervals to the upper boundary of the property. These measurements give the values of f(x) at x = 10, 30, 50, and 70. What is the approximate area of the lot?
__________ square feet
Question 205
Essay
Let f(x) = 8 - 4x Use a Riemann sum with four subintervals of equal length (n = 5) to approximate the area of R (under the graph of f on the interval [0, 2]). Choose the representative points to be the left end points of the subintervals. __________ sq units Repeat previous part with eight subintervals of equal length (n = 10). __________ sq units Compare the approximations obtained in previous parts with the exact area (8 sq units). Do the approximations improve with larger n?
