Determine the work done by the expanding gas using the trapezoidal rule. from the data in the image

A Gas undergoing an adiabatic expansion obeys
the law PV¹41 = 200.
The work done by the gas in expanding is given by
the area between the P-V curve and the horizontal
(V) axis at P=0.
The gas is expanded from an initial volume of 1 m³
to a final volume of 2 m³.
