  1. Use the trapezium rule with four ordinates (three strips) to find an approximate value for \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { 1.5 } \sqrt { 27 x ^ { 3 } + 4 } \mathrm {~d} x\), giving your answer to three significant figures.
  2. The curve with equation \(y = \sqrt { 27 x ^ { 3 } + 4 }\) is stretched parallel to the \(x\)-axis with scale factor 3 to give the curve with equation \(y = \mathrm { g } ( x )\). Write down an expression for \(\mathrm { g } ( x )\).
