Suppose the speed of a bee is given in the table.

Time (s) Speed (cm/s)

(a) Using the given measurements, find the left-hand estimate for the distance the bee moved during this experiment.

(b) Using the given measurements, find the midpoint estimate for the distance the bee moved during this experiment.

Foundations:  
1. The height of each rectangle in the left-hand Riemann sum is given by choosing
        the left endpoints of each interval.
3. The height of each rectangle in the midpoint Riemann sum is given by
          where    is the left endpoint of the interval and    is the right endpoint of the interval.


Solution:

(a)

Step 1:  
To estimate the distance the bee moved during this experiment,
we need to calculate the left-hand Riemann sum over the interval  
Based on the information given in the table, we will have    rectangles and
each rectangle will have width  
Step 2:  
Let    be the speed of the bee during the experiment.
Then, the left-hand Riemann sum is

       

(b)

Step 1:  
To estimate the distance the bee moved during this experiment,
we need to calculate the Riemann sum using the midpoint rule over the interval  
Based on the information given in the table, we will have    rectangles and
each rectangle will have width  
Step 2:  
Let    be the speed of the bee during the experiment.
Then, the Riemann sum using the midpoint rule is

       


Final Answer:  
    (a)    
    (b)
