Assignment#6: (30 points) All work should be your own. The use of Maple may be appropriate for some of these problems.

1. (5 pt) 7.2.1ab, use $n = 6$.

2. (10 pt) 7.2.5ac. Perform these estimates for both $S_n$ and $T_n$.

3. (5 pt) Using Gaussian Integration ($I_n$), approximate $\int_1^3 \log(x)~dx$ with $I_4$. Compare to the results for $S_4$.

4. (10 pt) 7.4.4. This is a similar problem to that of Boole's Method, except you are differentiating instead of integrating.
