I like how there are 4 different answers from 4 different people.

Can someone please upload the question/paper?

with this question, were you supposed to figure out the distance traveled for each interval doing d=v/t? then plug each value into simpsons?


edit: :(

I don't think so..you can just do the (h/3){(add end values) + 2(odd) + 4(even)} and that will give you the right answer.

I did something like this:
Distance = (5/3)*(173+(4*81)+127) + (5/3)*(127+(4*195)+168)
= (5/3)*(1699)
I think i may have had an addition error with the second one.
=(6895/3)
= 2298.33
Yeah, i think i screwed it up.

Hopefully separating it int
