Approximating definite integrals Complete the following steps for the given integral and the given value of n.
- a. Sketch the graph of the integrand on the interval of
integration . - b. Calculate ∆x and the grid points x0, x1, … , xn, assuming a regular partition.
- c. Calculate the left and right Riemann sums for the given value of n.
- d. Determine which Riemann sum (left or right) underestimates the value of the definite integral and which overestimates the value of the definite integral.
