Question: Suppose that the second derivative of the function A in Exercise 99 satisfies |A(h)| 1.5. Use the Error Bound to find the maximum possible
Suppose that the second derivative of the function A in Exercise 99 satisfies |A"(h)| ≤ 1.5. Use the Error Bound to find the maximum possible error in your estimate of the volume V of the pond.
Data From Exercise 99
The following table gives the area A(h) of a horizontal cross section of a pond at depth h. Use the Trapezoidal Rule to estimate the volume V of the pond (Figure 1).
