- #29 Assignment
  
  Read 8.1 and Extended Application p. 461-3.
  7.4; 84 version: a. Just describe V(t) from t=0 to t=T. b. Evaluate the given formula by first finding the integral value by calculator (say what command you use, fnInt is suggested). (May ignore book's hint.)
  8.1; 9(show calculation steps using rule formulas), 15, 16, 17-20(see below), 37(just report your calculator's approximation of the integral).
  p. 463; 2 (Typo: the integral should be from 0 to 24, not 0 to t.)
  On 17 & 19, To compute all requested values, may use online app, record all digits, in a table (could use a spreadsheet): summarize results in a table of " n, Trap, Err, Err*n^p" & corresponding for "Simp" in 19. Hint: in finding p, you may assume that Simpson has a higher p than Trapezoidal and "approximately a constant" means just agreeing in a couple of digits.
  Optional Star: 7.4; *61+on (c) repeat for h=.0001 and also use calculator/computing to graph antiderivative f(x) on [0,1], write what you do and what you input.
