Definition used:
The integration of the rate of change of a quantity over an interval [a, b] is the result is the total change of that quantity from ato b.
Description:
Application of definite integrals is used to calculate the total amount of the quantity within the range a≤x≤b by the definition mentioned above.
Thus, the integral is used to compute the total amount of a varying quantity in many applications.
Therefore, the given statement is true.

For: F ( 0 ) = 0 and F ′ ( x ) = f ( x )
Euler's method: F ( 0 + h ) = F ( 0 ) + h F ′ ( 0 ) = 0 + h f ( 0 )
Continuing the process, F ( 10 h ) = h f ( 0 ) + h f ( h ) + h f ( 2 h ) + . . . . . h f ( 9 h )
This resembles the Riemann sum: Σ i = 1 n f ( x i ) ( x i − x i − 1 )
Therefore my professor used Euler's method to solve integral problems.

Example: ∫ 3 3.09 f ( x ) d x = 0.81. Approximate f ( 3 ) . F ( x ) = h f ( x )
0.81 = 0.09 f ( x )
f ( x ) = 3
My question: How did F ( x + h ) = F ( x ) + h f ( x ) become F ( x ) = h f ( x ) ?

Finding asymptotes of a function using limits
I need to find asymptotes of a function. I didn't find any vertical asymptotes and I think there aren't any. But when trying to find a horizontal asymptote I evaluate the limit as x approaches infinity but can't successfully find it.
f ( x ) = x arctan ⁡ ( x )
y ′ ( t ) = f ( t , y ) , a ≤ t ≤ b , y ( a ) = α
apply for the extrapolation technique
we let h 0 = h 2 and use Euler method with w 0 = α
w 1 = w 0 + h 0 f ( a , w 0 )
and then midpoint method
t i − 1 = a , t i = a + h 0 = a + h 2 to produce
approximation to y ( a + 2 h 0 )
w 2 = w 0 + 2 h 0 f ( a + h 0 , w 1 )
y 1 , 1 = 1 2 [ w 2 + w 1 + h 0 f ( a + 2 h 0 , w 2 ) ]
then why this form results O ( h 0 2 ) approximation to y ( t 1 )
One method consists in computing the numerical solution for an arbitrary h and then 2 h. The Richardson extrapolation gives an estimate of e = max t | y ( t , 2 h ) − y ( t , h ) | of the error. When the error is smaller than the tolerance, we keep the result and start from 2 y ( t , h ) − y ( t , h ). If the error is larger we restart with h / 2 until we reach the tolerance.
( y ( t , 2 h ) means approximation with 2 h)
I don't understand why the Richardson extrapolation is mentioned. For what do I have to use it? Can I not just calculate y ( t , 2 h ) and y ( t , h ) and see the error?
