Use Simpson's rule to find the arclength of the curve $LaTeX: \displaystyle f(x)=e^{x}$ on $LaTeX: \displaystyle (4,9)$ with $LaTeX: \displaystyle n=32$ .

$LaTeX: \displaystyle \Delta x = \frac{ 9 - 4 }{ 32 }$ . $LaTeX: \displaystyle x_i = a +i\Delta x = 4 + i \frac{5}{32}$ Using the 1,4,2,...,2,4,1 pattern the sum can be written as $LaTeX: \displaystyle x_i$ can be written split into the even and odd terms. $LaTeX: \displaystyle x_k = 4 + (2k-1)\cdot \frac{5}{32}$ for $LaTeX: \displaystyle k=1$ to $LaTeX: \displaystyle k =16$ and $LaTeX: \displaystyle x_j = 4 + (2j)\cdot \frac{5}{32}$ for $LaTeX: \displaystyle j=1$ to $LaTeX: \displaystyle j =15$ . $LaTeX: \displaystyle f(4) +f(9)+4\sum_{k=1}^{16}f\left(\frac{5 k}{16} + \frac{123}{32}\right) + 2\sum_{j=1}^{15}f\left(\frac{5 j}{16} + 4\right)$ . The value is $LaTeX: \displaystyle 8048.5$
