1. a) Use a table of values to sketch a graph of y = 12 x2 + x on [0, 1]. Mark the

region S lying under the curve from x = 0 to x = 1. b) Estimate the area of S

hand end points. c) Write down and evaluate a Riemann sum representing the
area of S, using n approximating rectangles with right hand end points. d) Find
the limit of the sum as n → ∞. e) Write an integral representing the area of S
and evaluate it using antiderivatives.

manufacturing x metres of a certain fabric. a) Find the increase in cost if
production is raised from 600 m to 800 m. b) If C(0) = $4000, find the total

12. The breathing process is cyclic. A complete cycle takes about 5 seconds,
and the maximum rate of airflow into the lungs is about 0.5 litres/s, so the rate at
which air flows into the lungs can be modeled by the function r(t) = 21 sin( 2πt 5 ),
where t is time in seconds and r is in litres/s. Find the total change in the volume
of air in the lungs over the time interval [0, 2.5].

17. Domestic electricity in Vietnam is alternating current with frequency 50 Hz,
so the voltage at time t seconds is V (t) = A sin(100πt), where A is a constant.
The RMS (root mean square) voltage is the square root of the average value of
[V (t)]2 over one period. If the RMS voltage is 220 V, find the value of A.
