Trapezoid Rule: Quiz


Problem 2

The table indicates a relationship between two variables x and y.

xy
44.00
54.20
64.40
74.50
84.55
94.60

Assume y = f(x) where f is continuous, and approximate

using the Trapezoid Rule.


Answers, problem 2

We can see from the table that h = 1, therefore answer is:

1/2(4.00 + 4.60 + 2(4.20) + 2(4.40) + 2(4.50) + 2(4.55)) = 21.95
