1. $$y = \sqrt { \left( 2 ^ { x } + x \right) }$$ a. Complete the table below, giving the values of \(y\) to 3 decimal places.
\(x\)00.20.40.60.81
\(y\)11.1611.3111.732
(1)
b. Use the trapezium rule with all the values of \(y\) from your table to find an approximation for the value of $$\int _ { 0 } ^ { 1 } \sqrt { \left( 2 ^ { x } + x \right) } \mathrm { d } x$$ giving your answer to 3 significant figures. Using your answer to part (b) and making your method clear, estimate
c. \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { 0.5 } \sqrt { \left( 2 ^ { 2 x } + 2 x \right) } \mathrm { d } x\)
