First, identify the function given: \( f(x) = \frac{1}{3}x^3 \). We need to estimate the area under this curve from \( x = 0 \) to \( x = 3 \) using three rectangles and the right endpoints.
Divide the interval \([0, 3]\) into three equal subintervals. Each subinterval will have a width of \( \Delta x = \frac{3 - 0}{3} = 1 \).
Determine the right endpoints of each subinterval. For the subintervals \([0, 1]\), \([1, 2]\), and \([2, 3]\), the right endpoints are \( x = 1 \), \( x = 2 \), and \( x = 3 \) respectively.
Calculate the height of each rectangle using the function \( f(x) \) at the right endpoints: \( f(1) = \frac{1}{3}(1)^3 \), \( f(2) = \frac{1}{3}(2)^3 \), and \( f(3) = \frac{1}{3}(3)^3 \).
The area of each rectangle is given by \( \text{height} \times \Delta x \). Sum the areas of the three rectangles to estimate the total area under the curve: \( A = f(1) \times 1 + f(2) \times 1 + f(3) \times 1 \).
