Simpson's rule

The values of abscissa (x) and ordinate (y) of a curve are as follows: X y 2.0 5.00 2.5 7.25 3.0 10.00 3.5 13.25 4.0 17.00 By Simpson's 1/3rd rule, the area under the curve (round...

A series of perpendicular offsets taken from a curved boundary wall to a straight survey line at an interval of 6 m are 1.22, 1.67, 2.04, 2.34, 2.14, 1.87, and 1.15 m. The area (in...

The estimate of $$\int\limits_{0.5}^{1.5} {{{dx} \over x}} \,\,$$ obtained using Simpson's rule with three-point function evaluation exceeds the exact value by
