(t = 0 corresponds to midnight, t = 13 would correspond to 1pm, etc). What was the average outside temperature at CU on February 1 (from t = 0 to t = 24)? Round your answer to the nearest degree if applicable.
(a) Approximate
12 by rewriting it as f (x) =
x and finding TWO equations for the local linear approximation of f (x) =
x by selecting two different points near x = 12. Let L 1 (x) represent the linearization about the smaller x value and L 2 (x) represent the linearization about the larger x value. (b) Find L 1 (12) and L 2 (12). (c) Now use Newton’s Method with an initial guess of x 0 = 4 to approximate
by letting g(x) = x^2 − 12 and solving for the positive root of g(x) = 0. Compute both x 1 and x 2. NOTE: There is some algebra involved, but I have faith that you can do it. ^¨

(a) Make a sketch of the data and clearly label the x and y axis. Note: Even though the data is not continuous, both time and fuel consumption are. Therefore we can “connect the dots” using straight lines to form a continuous graph for the purposes of this problem. Just remember that anything that is not a data point is an estimate. (b) Adding to your sketch from part a, show what a left endpoint approximation method with six rectangles would look like. (c) Using a left endpoint approximation method with six rectangles, estimate the total consumption of gas during the trip. (d) Have you found an over or under-estimate of the total gas consumption? Justify your answer.
