Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To estimate the distance traveled using right-end point values with 8 subintervals of length 1, we take the velocity at the end of each interval (from 1 second to 8 seconds) and multiply each by the interval length (1 second), then sum these products. The velocities at the end of each interval are 8, 24, 31, 30, 28, 31, 26, and 4 inches per second. Thus, the estimated distance is $8 + 24 + 31 + 30 + 28 + 31 + 26 + 4 = 182$ inches.
