Problem 5

A particle's velocity is given by v=3t+4v=\(\frac{3}{t+4}\) (m/s\(\mathrm{m}\) / \(\mathrm{s}\)) for 2t8 2 \(\leq\) t \(\leq\) 8 . Approximate the displacement of the particle over this interval by dividing it into n=3 n = 3 subintervals and using the left endpoint of each subinterval for the rectangle heights.
