The three parts of this problem concern the area under the graph of y=f(x)=1/x on the interval (.5,4). (A) Estimate this area using L6. That is, use 6 equal width rectangles over the interval (.5,4), the height of each rectangle determined by the left endpoint of each subinterval. (B) Estimate this area using R6. That is, use 6 equal width rectangles over the interval (.5,4) with the height of each rectangle determined by the right endpoint of each subinterval. (C) Use calculus methods to determine the exact area by evaluating the definite integral (.5,4) 1/x dx
