### Understanding Riemann Sums: Interactive Exercise

#### Question:
**Which Riemann sum represents the illustration shown?**

#### Diagram Description:
The diagram features a linear function plotted over the interval \([1, 4]\) on the x-axis. The function appears to be a straight line increasing from the origin with a slope, indicating a proportional relationship between \(x\) and \(y\). Additionally, the graph includes bar-like regions underneath the curve, showing rectangular regions whose height is defined by the function's value at specific points. Here, we see three rectangular bars spanning the intervals from \(1\) to \(2\), \(2\) to \(3\), and \(3\) to \(4\).

#### Answer Options:

1. \( \mathbf{1 \sum_{i=0}^{3} \frac{1}{2} x_i} \)
2. \( \mathbf{1 \sum_{i=1}^{4} 4 x_i} \)
3. \( \mathbf{1 \sum_{i=0}^{3} \frac{1}{2} x_i^2} \)
4. \( \mathbf{1 \sum_{i=1}^{4} \frac{1}{2} x_i^2} \)

Choose the correct Riemann sum that accurately represents the illustration displayed above. Use the intervals and function depicted in the graph to determine the proper summation expression.
