Approximating displacement The velocity of an object is given by the following functions on a specified interval. Approximate the displacement of the object on this interval by subdividing the interval into n subintervals. Use the left endpoint of each subinterval to compute the height of the rectangles.
14. v = t2/2 + 4 (ft/s), for 0 ≤ t ≤ 12; n = 6
