?Estimate the numerical value of \(\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-x^{2}} d x\) by writing it as

Chapter 7, Problem 84

(choose chapter or problem)

Estimate the numerical value of \(\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-x^{2}} d x\) by writing it as the sum of \(\int_{0}^{4} e^{-x^{2}} d x\)and \(\int_{4}^{\infty} e^{-x^{2}} d x\). Approximate the first integral by using Simpson's Rule with \(n=8\) and show that the second integral is smaller than\(\int_{4}^{\infty} e^{-4 x} d x\), which is less than \(0.0000001\).
