Integral Quick Check True or False. If a piece of string has been chopped into n small pieces and the ith piece is ∆xi inches long, then the total length of the string is exactly n i=1 ∆xi . Summation notation can be used to represent physical quantities. Furthermore, notice that we can have an exact value even though we haven’t taken a limit. 10 / 14 Introduction to Integration
