Oil tank leak from the tank at a rate of
liters per hour.
The time interval is
hours.
The five time intervals are
and
.
Observe the table.
\The function is an decreasing function with in the time interval
.
Upper estimation is the approximation by taking left endpoints with subintervals
and lower estimation is approximation by taking the right end points subintervals
.
Width of the interval is
.
Determine the left end approximation.
\Left end points are
and
.
.
Substitute all corresponding rates from the table.
\
Oil leaked from the tank in 10 hours by left end approximation is
lit.
Therefore, upper estimation is
lit.
\
Determine the right end approximation.
\Right end points are
and
.

Substitute all corresponding rates from the table.
\
Oil leaked from the tank in 10 hours by left end approximation is
lit.
Therefore, lower estimation is
lit.
\
Upper estimation is
lit.
Lower estimation is
lit.
