Explain your work to a friend who has not yet taken Calculus. Write your explanation in a way that your friend can follow your process. Describe the following: How you decided on the points to use in each method (left, right, and midpoint). What you did with those points once you had them. How your steps resulted in three different approximations for the area. Use clear, accessible language so your explanation is understandable to someone new to these ideas.
