Find the approximated integral value of an equation x^3-2x+1 using Riemann Sum
a = 2 and b = 4
Step value (h) = 0.5Solution:Equation is `f(x)=x^3-2x+1`
`a=2`
`b=4`
The value of table for `x` and `f(x)`
| `x` | `f(x)` |
| `x_0=2` | `f(x_(0))=f(2)=5` |
| `x_1=2.5` | `f(x_(1))=f(2.5)=11.625` |
| `x_2=3` | `f(x_(2))=f(3)=22` |
| `x_3=3.5` | `f(x_(3))=f(3.5)=36.875` |
| `x_4=4` | `f(x_(4))=f(4)=57` |
Method-1:Using Left Riemann Sum
`int f(x) dx=Delta x xx(f(x_(0))+f(x_(1))+f(x_(2))+...+f(x_(n-1)))`
`int f(x) dx=Delta x xx(f(x_(0))+f(x_(1))+f(x_(2))+f(x_(3)))`
`=0.5xx(5+11.625+22+36.875)`
`=0.5xx(75.5)`
`=37.75`
Solution by Left Riemann Sum is `37.75`
