Exercise 7.6.11 Using Simpson's rule on a parabola f(x), even with just two subintervals, gives the exact value of the integral, because the parabolas used to approximate f will be f itself. Remarkably, Simpson's rule also computes the integral of a cubic function f(x) = ax³ + bx² +cx+d exactly. Show this is true by showing that X2 x2 - Xo 3.2 This does require a bit of messy algebra, so you may prefer to use Sage. f(x) dx = -(ƒ(xo)+4ƒ((xo+x₂)/2) + f(x₂)).
