So if we're going to apply the midpoint rule for this, what i'm going to first do is go ahead and make kind of a janky chart.
00:10
So since everything is equally spaced two meters apart, i'm just going to say this is zero over here.
00:15
Then this is two, four, six, eight, ten, twelve, fourteen, sixteen.
00:23
Let me make sure i just lined these up correctly.
00:27
Okay, yeah.
00:29
And then, so these are going to be like our x values.
00:32
And then up top here, this should be all of our y values.
00:38
So normally what we would do is we would just take all of our inputs and then average these, and then we get a value in between it.
00:46
But notice how we don't know what the height is in between these two.
00:50
So we have to tackle this slightly different.
00:53
And what we're going to have to do instead is look at the number between like 0 and 4, because then we know what 2 is.
01:03
Then we would do the same thing for 4 to 8 so it would be from 4 to 8 so that would be 6 and then we're going to have from 8 to 12 with 10 in the middle 12 to 16 with 4 in the middle so maybe i should like circle these so these are going to be our midpoint values how we will be using for x and then the corresponding y values we will be using are these so what we're going to really be doing is setting up rectangles in the following way...
