Using the Trapezium rule with four ordinates (three strips), estimate to 4 significant figures the integral from 1 to 4 of (x^3+12)/4sqrt(x). Calculate the exact value of this integral, comparing it with your estimate. How could the estimate be improved?

Taking the value at the ordinates f(1) = 13/4, f(2) = 20/4sqrt(2), f(3) = 39/4sqrt(3), f(4) = 9.5 Then the trapezium rule states the integral is approximately 1/2 * [f(1) + 2f(2) + 2f(3) + f(4)], which (usin...
