First, identify the function to integrate: \(f(x) = 2x - 1\), and the interval of integration: from \(a = 1\) to \(b = 3\).
To evaluate the integral directly, set up the definite integral: \(\int_{1}^{3} (2x - 1) \, dx\).
Find the antiderivative of the function \(f(x)\). Since \(f(x) = 2x - 1\), its antiderivative is \(F(x) = x^{2} - x\).
Evaluate the antiderivative at the bounds and subtract: calculate \(F(3) - F(1)\), which gives the exact value of the integral.
To find the trapezoidal rule error bound \(|E_{T}|\), use the formula \(|E_{T}| \leq \frac{(b - a)^{3}}{12n^{2}} \max_{a \leq x \leq b} |f''(x)|\), where \(n\) is the number of subintervals and \(f''(x)\) is the second derivative of \(f(x)\). Compute \(f''(x)\) and substitute the values to find \(|E_{T}|\).

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Definite Integral

A definite integral calculates the exact area under a curve between two limits. It is represented as ∫ from a to b of f(x) dx, where a and b are the interval bounds. Evaluating it directly involves finding the antiderivative and computing its difference at the bounds.

Definition of the Definite Integral

Trapezoidal Rule

The Trapezoidal Rule is a numerical method to approximate definite integrals by dividing the area under the curve into trapezoids. It estimates the integral by summing the areas of these trapezoids, which are formed by connecting points on the function with straight lines.

Trapezoidal Rule Error Bound (|ET|)

The error bound |ET| measures the difference between the exact integral and the Trapezoidal Rule approximation. It depends on the second derivative of the function and the width of the subintervals, providing a way to estimate the accuracy of the numerical approximation.
