Folks,

Here's a question that I'm stuck on.

It's about gaussian quadrature.

I need to find which statement is true.

Attached is the png that ask the question.

Let me know if anybody has any ideas.

James

You have to choose answer b, because

(\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx=\frac{b-a}{2}\int_{-1}^{1}f(\frac{b-a}{2}x + \frac{b-a}{2})dx=\frac{b-a}{2}\sum_{k=1}^{n}\omega_{k}f(\frac{b-a}{2}x_{k} + \frac{b-a}{2}))
