Let f be a function that is positive, continuous, decreasing, and concave down on the interval [a, b ]. Assuming that [a, b ] is subdivided into n equal subintervals, arrange the following approximates of ∫ a b f ( x ) d x in order of increasing value: left endpoint, right endpoint, midpoint, and trapezoidal.
