Consider the function
whose graph was shown (the dotted curve in the graph below):
a. has a maximum at about (1, 1.2) and a minimum at about (3, -1.2).
b. g has an inflection point at (2,0). It changes from concave down to concave up.

b.
The midpoint sum M20
can be set up like so.
As the screenshot below shows, the TI-200 calculates this to be 85.36, while
the true value is 85 + 1/3, meaning the error is EM

c.
Approximate to 6 significant digits the trapezoidal
sum, T20, and its error ET.
On the Voyage 200, I verified this with the average of left and right sums, so
Whence the error is ET
d.

The easiest way to compute the Simpson sum at this point is as the weighted
average This is an exact value for the integral, ES = 0.
