7. (15 pts) Numerical Integration. Given a continuous function f (x) on the interval [a, b], write the Lagrange form of the quadratic polynomial interpolating f(a), (a b)), f(b). Instead of calculating the integral I(f) Jaf(x)dx we could approximate it via Q(f) = | q(x)dx. Find an expression for this quadrature rule, the so-called Simpson's rule.
A function f, which has derivatives for all orders for all real numbers, has a 3rd degree Taylor polynomial for f centered at x = 5. The 4th derivative of f satisfies the inequality f^(4)(x) ≤ 6 for all x the interval from 4.5 to 5 inclusive. Find the LaGrange error bound if the 3rd degree Taylor polynomial is used to estimate f(4.5). You must show your work but do not need to evaluate the remainder expression.

4) Three friends are working on a problem concerning a differentiable function f(x,y,z) at a point P. While these 3 people are discussing their calculations: 1st person says: "I found the equation of the tangent plane to the surface f(x, y, z)=c at the point P to be 3x + 6y – 2z =9". 2nd person says: "I discovered that the maximum value of the directional derivative of the function f at the point P is 5" 3rd person says:...
