We started a new chapter this week! On Monday, we were introduced to section 5.1: Estimating with Finite Sums. At first, this was tricky for me, I kept thinking I was doing the problems correctly but I ended up being wrong. I finally became fairly consistent and drilled the way to do it into my head. I just have to remember to find the functional value of a point and multiply it by the width of the rectangle we are using. Of course, with more practice, this wi become easier and I'm looking forward to that.
Section 5.2 was us learning about how to use the calculator to do integration faster. It was easy!
Section 5.3 was easy too! We learned the rules of definite integrals, the mean value theorem, and the derivatives of integrals. This week in class was easy, in my opinion it is one of the easiest weeks we've had in a while!
