Estimate the area of the region bounded between the curve f(x) = 1 x+1 and the horizontal axis over the interval [1, 5] using a right Riemann sum. Use n = 4 rectangles first, then repeat using n = 8 rectangles. The exact area under the curve over [1, 5] is ln(3) ≈ 1.0986. Which of your estimates is closer to the true value?
