Use Simpson's rule to find the arclength of the curve LaTeX:  \displaystyle f(x)=e^{x} on LaTeX:  \displaystyle (1,10) with LaTeX:  \displaystyle n=34 .

LaTeX:  \displaystyle \Delta x = \frac{ 10 - 1 }{ 34 } . LaTeX:  \displaystyle x_i = a +i\Delta x = 1 + i \frac{9}{34} 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 = 1 + (2k-1)\cdot \frac{9}{34} for LaTeX:  \displaystyle k=1 to LaTeX:  \displaystyle k =17 and LaTeX:  \displaystyle x_j = 1 + (2j)\cdot \frac{9}{34} for LaTeX:  \displaystyle j=1 to LaTeX:  \displaystyle j =16 . LaTeX:  \displaystyle f(1) +f(10)+4\sum_{k=1}^{17}f\left(\frac{9 k}{17} + \frac{25}{34}\right) + 2\sum_{j=1}^{16}f\left(\frac{9 j}{17} + 1\right) . The value is LaTeX:  \displaystyle 22025.0
