Use a Riemann sum with 4 rectangles of equal width to approximate the area between y=3x^(2)+1 and the x-axis on the interval -1,5. Use the left -hand endpoint of each subinterval.
Added by Michael Z.
Step 1
The interval is from -1 to 5, so the total width is 5 - (-1) = 6. Since we are using 4 rectangles, the width of each subinterval is 6 / 4 = 1.5. Show more…

Use a Riemann sum to approximate the area under the graph of f(x) (shown below) on the interval 5 ≤ x ≤ 9, using n = 4 subintervals and right endpoints. Draw the approximating rectangles. Which graph below uses the right endpoints of the 4 subintervals? Using the specified rectangles, approximate the area.
