Approximate the integral $$\int\limits_{0}^{8} f{\left(x \right)}\, dx$$$with the left Riemann sum using the table below:  $$x$$$ $$0$$$$$2$$$ $$4$$$$$6$$$ $$8$$$$$f{\left(x \right)}$$$ $$1$$$$$-2$$$ $$5$$$$$0$$$ $$7$$$## Solution The left Riemann sum approximates the integral using left endpoints: $$\int\limits_{a}^{b} f{\left(x \right)}\, dx\approx \sum_{i=1}^{n - 1} \left(x_{i+1} - x_{i}\right) f{\left(x_{i} \right)}$$$, where $$n$$$is the number of points. Therefore, $$\int\limits_{0}^{8} f{\left(x \right)}\, dx\approx \left(2 - 0\right) 1 + \left(4 - 2\right) \left(-2\right) + \left(6 - 4\right) 5 + \left(8 - 6\right) 0 = 8$$$.
$$\int\limits_{0}^{8} f{\left(x \right)}\, dx\approx 8$$\$A
