(a)

\

Consider the function concave up on interval \"\" is \"\".

\

Consider the function concave down on interval \"\" is \"\".

\

The number of subintervals are \"\".

\

Graph the function: \"\" on \"\".

\

\"\".

\

Observe the Graph:

\

Using Trapezoidal rule the integral value \"\".

\

The definite integral is \"\".

\

Therefore, the Trapezoidal rule is overestimate in \"\".

\

(b)

\

Simposons rule.

\

Since the two functions are quadratic functions Simpsons rule is more accurate approximations of \"\" and \"\".

\

The Trapezoidal Rule approximates using first degree polynomials(linear).
