Give two qualitatively different examples of functions \(\displaystyle \int_{5}^{9}g(x)\) is not well approximated by the approximate integration methods? It seems like the answer is obvious here, but I would like some input or any amount of help. :oops:

What are the obvious answers you are thinking about?

WEll, I'm not quite sure, a function where Simpsons rule doesn't approximate it well?

Under what circumstances Simpson's rule would not approximate well?

In other words, what are the assumptions behind Simpson's rule?
