Question 38

The following table shows corresponding values of xxx and yyy for a curve with equation y=g(x)y = g(x)y=g(x). The values of yyy are rounded to 3 decimal places.

xxx01234
yyy1.1413.5626.8904.1210.985
a.

Using the trapezium rule with all the values of yyy in the given table, obtain an estimate for

∫04g(x) dx \int_{0}^{4} g(x) \, dx ∫04​g(x)dx

giving your answer to 2 decimal places.

[3]
b.

Use your answer to part (a) to estimate (i)

∫04(g(x)+3) dx \int_{0}^{4} (g(x) + 3) \, dx ∫04​(g(x)+3)dx

(ii)

∫26g(x−2) dx \int_{2}^{6} g(x-2) \, dx ∫26​g(x−2)dx
