statement is TRUE

statement is FALSE

statement is TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

By using the Trapezoidal Rule, the definite integral can be computed by applying linear interpolating formula on each sub interval, and then sum-up them, to get the value of the integral

So, in computing a definite integral of a linear function, the approximated value occurred by using Trapezoidal Rule is same as the area of the region. Thus, the value of the definite integral of a linear function is exact, by using the Trapezoidal Rule.

Therefore, the statement is TRUE

(b) Recollect that for each rule of both the midpoint and trapezoidal rules, the number of sub-internals, n increases by a factor of a. then the error decreases by a factor of a^2.

So, for the midpoint rule, the number of sub-intervals, n is increased by a factor of 3, then the error is decreased by a factor of 32 = 9, not 8. Therefore, the statement is FALSE

(c) Recollect that for each rule of both the midpoint and trapezoidal rules, the number of sub-internals, n increases by a factor of a. then the error decreases by a factor of a^2.

So, for the trapezoidal rule, the number of sub-internals, n is increased by a factor of 4. then the error is decreased by a factor of 42 = 16

Therefore, the statement is TRUE

Answer from: Quest

the required function is $y=-x+4$ .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{4-7}{)}=\frac{-3}{3}=-1$

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

$y=mx+b$

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

$y=-1x+4$

$y=-x+4$

therefore the required function is $y=-x+4$ . the graph of this function is shown below.
