aps are ca-razy

well, all we've done this week were ap reviews and more practice aps, but at least the last one wasn't as bad as the others

LRAM is the left Reimann Sums. It uses the left points touching the graph.
RRAM is the right Reimann Sums. It uses the right points touching the graph.
In order to get an accurate estimation, you need to do both LRAM and RRAM because one will always be an underestimate and one will always be an overestimate.
Reimann Sums is the method of breaking up the region into smaller, easier shapes and adding the area of each one together. It is commonly used with rectangles.
First, the area of a rectangle is length times width. So, we must find the length and the width of each rectangle, then add all of them together.
