Suppose Using N = 10 to Approximate the Integral of a Certain

question 142

Multiple Choice

Suppose using n = 10 to approximate the integral of a certain function by Simpson's Rule results in an upper bound for the error equal to $\frac { 1 } { 10 }$ . What will the upper bound become if we change to n = 20?

• A) \(\frac { 1 } { 100 }\)
• B) \(\frac { 1 } { 10,000 }\)
• C) \(\frac { 1 } { 40 }\)
• D) \(\frac { 1 } { 1000 }\)
• E) \(\frac { 1 } { 160 }\)
• F) \(\frac { 1 } { 20 }\)
• G) \(\frac { 1 } { 100,000 }\)
• H) \(\frac { 1 } { 80 }\)
