For the given function, write an expression in summation notation that will approximate
Recall problem 2-17:
i. For left-endpoint and midpoint rectangles, let the index start at
For right-endpoint rectangles, let the index start at
ii. The
To determine the width of each rectangle, divide the domain by the number of rectangles:
iii. The transformed function represents the HEIGHT of each rectangle.
For left- and right-endpoint rectangles, the heights are represented by
For midpoint rectangles, the heights are represented by
