A function f(x), that is smooth and convex-shaped between interval (x_l, x_u) is shown in the figure. This function is observed at odd number of regularly spaced points. If the area under the function is computed numeric...

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 off to two decimal places) is ________
