 Problem 1 

Let  $f(x)=1-x^{2}$.

(a) Compute the left-hand Riemann sum approximation of  $\int _{0}^{3}f(x)~dx$  with  $n=3$  boxes.

(b) Compute the right-hand Riemann sum approximation of  $\int _{0}^{3}f(x)~dx$  with  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle n=3}   boxes.

(c) Express  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \int_0^3 f(x)~dx}   as a limit of right-hand Riemann sums (as in the definition of the definite integral). Do not evaluate the limit.

(b)   Use your answer to part (a) to find the size of the population after one month.
