Simpson's Rule #5 Speedometer readings for a vehicle at 12-second intervals are given in the table. t(s) 0 12 24 36 48 60 72 v(ft/s) 30 28 25 22 24 27 5 a. Sketch a scatterplot for these data. b. Using Simpson's rule estimate distance traveled over this time period. c. What was the average velocity over this time period? Mark this value on the vertical axes of your scatterplot.

The velocity v of a particle at distance s of a particle at distance s from a point on its path is given by the following table: S(ft) 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 V(ft/s) 47 58 64 65 61 52 38 Estimate the time taken to travel 60 ft using Simpson's 1/3 rule. Compare the result with Simpson's 3/8 rule.
