7. Estimate A( f ( x) = 2 x2 , 1 x 4) using 6 left-endpoint rectangles. Determine if the
result will be an upper bound or lower bound for the actual area. Justify your answer
using a sketch. (6 points)

8. Sketch the curve, showing the rectangles used to find the area. Find the area using the
given method and determine if the result is a lower or upper bound for the actual area.
