Let f(x) = 2x + 5 and suppose that the interval [0,10] is partitioned into 20 subintervals

Question:

Let f(x) = 2x + 5 and suppose that the interval [0,10] is partitioned into 20 subintervals of length 0.5. Without calculating T20, explain why the trapezoidal rule gives the exact area between the graph of f and the x axis from x = 0 to x = 10.
