Prove that the Trapezoid Rule is exact (no error) when approximating the definite integral of a linear function.
Refer to Theorem 2 and let \(f(x)=\sin e^{x}\) a. Find a Trapezoid Rule approximation to \(\int_{0}^{1} \sin \left(e^{x}\right) d x\) using \(n=40\) subintervals. b. Calculate \(f^{\prime \prime}(x)\) c. Explain why \(\left|f^{\prime \prime}(x)\right|<6\) on \([0,1],\) given that \(e<3\). (Hint: Graph \(\left.f^{\prime \prime} .\right)\) d. Find an upper bound on the absolute error in the estimate found in part (a) using Theorem 2.
Consider the family of functions \(f(x)=1 / x^{p},\) where \(p\) is a real number. For what values of \(p\) does the integral \(\int_{0}^{1} f(x) d x\) exist? What is its value?
Use integration by parts to evaluate the following integrals. $$\int_{0}^{\infty} x e^{-x} d x$$
Bob and Bruce bake bagels (shaped like tori). They both make standard bagels that have an inner radius of 0.5 in and an outer radius of 2.5 in. Bob plans to increase the volume of his bagels by decreasing the inner radius by \(20 \%\) (leaving the outer radius unchanged). Bruce plans to increase the volume of his bagels by increasing the outer radius by \(20 \%\) (leaving the inner radius unchanged). Whose new bagels will have the greater volume? Does this result depend on the size of the original bagels? Explain.
