Simpson’s 1/3 rule approximates the integrand with a second-order polynomial, and when calculating its error, the integral of the remainder of the “modified” second-order Taylor series is zero, which indicates that the rule is exact

When completing a rectal examination on a patient, you may position your patient in a variety of ways. All of the following positions will allow for a thorough rectal examination except:

The formula for the multiple-application version of Simpson 1/3 over n intervals can be obtained by using the single-application of the rule n times.

Numerical integration fundamentally relies on

Simpson’s 3/8 rule is more accurate than expected.

When completing a rectal examination on a patient, you may position your patient in a variety of ways. All of the following positions will allow for a thorough rectal examination except:

The formula for the multiple-application version of Simpson 1/3 over n intervals can be obtained by using the single-application of the rule n times.

Numerical integration is useful (check all that apply)

Simpson’s 1/3 rule has an error of zero when the integrand is (check all that apply)
