Question

The velocity of a car was read from its speedometer at 10-second intervals and recorded in the table. Use the midpoint rule to estimate the distance (in miles) traveled by the car. t(s) 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 v(mi/h) 0 27 46 51 59 64 69 52 58 44 36 Estimate = Hint 1: Take n = 5. Hint 2: Watch for the units of measurement.

Step 1

Step 1: Calculate the width of each interval Given that the total time interval is from 0 to 100 seconds and there are 5 intervals, we can calculate the width of each interval: Width of each interval = (100 - 0) / 5 = 20 seconds Show more…
