2. a) (8 pts) Using sigma notation, write the midpoint Riemann sum to approximate the area bounded by the graph of f(x)=x2−1 and the x-axis on the interval [2,7],n=40, using the steps shown in class. (You will calculate the sum in part (b).) Write the sum in the form: k=1∑nf(xk)Δx and then go to part b). b) (8 pts ) Calculate the Riemann sum, using the steps shown in class, to approximate the area. Show work, using summation formulas. All work must be shown! Round to two decimal positions if necessary.
