What's the area? A certain lake has an irregular shape. In order to estimate the area, the North-South distance across the lake is measured every 100 feet down an East-West line. The results are shown in the table below. Use an appropriate technique to estimate the number of acres that the lake covers. Give a complete explanation of how you computed the area.
Testing the Limits Find the following limit algebraically. In your solution, describe the process used. Do NOT simply plug the expression into a grapher to find the limit.
