Step 1 1 of 7

Given Data

We are given with following function:

f (x) = 2e−1.5x

The tabular values of the function are also given below. We have to compute the integral
from a = 0 to b = 0.6 using different methods.

I = 0.7912 ​

Step 3 3 of 7

Part (b) Trapezoidal Rule

The formula is:

f (x0 ) + f (x1 ) f (x1 ) + f (x2 ) f (xn−1 ) + f (xn )

I = h1 + h2 + … + hn
​ ​ ​ ​ ​

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

Substitute the data:

f (x0 ) + f (x1 ) f (x1 ) + f (x2 ) f (xn−1 ) + f (xn )

I = h1 + h2 + … + hn
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

Step 5 5 of 7

Part (c) Combination Rule

The Combined Integration formula is:

f (x0 ) + f (x1 ) f (x1 ) + 3f (x2 ) + 3f (x3 ) + f (x4 )

I = (b − a) + (b − a) + (b − a)
​ ​ ​ ​ ​

​ ​

On substitution:

f (x0 ) + f (x1 ) f (x1 ) + 3f (x2 ) + 3f (x3 ) + f (x4 )

I = (b − a) + (b − a) + (b − a
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
