A particle moves in a straight line with a velocity of v' (t) = /3t –1 meters per second, where t is time in seconds. At t = 2, the particle's distance from the starting point was 8 meters in the positive direction. A) Calculate the approximate position of the particle at t=8 seconds using Simpson's 3/8 rule. B) What is the True Error if by using direct integration the answer is 30.028 meters? C) What is the Absolute Relative Error?
