You are planning to use Simpson’s Rule to estimate the value of the integral

with an error magnitude less than 10^-5. You have determined that |ƒ⁽⁴⁾(x)| ≤ 3 throughout the interval of integration. How many subintervals should you use to ensure the required accuracy? (Remember that for Simpson’s Rule the number has to be even.)
