it took me a while to cotton on to the cheese question but i think my working out i may have solved it ( in the beginning i wrote "how to you fid the side length of the cheese?" on my paper)
but after all the time a wasted i wanted to make on the time on the volume q and promptly forgot to times the area of the triangle by the width.... bugger :mad1:

I didn't get Simpsons rule 28) b)i

Find an expression for the area of the cross-section using TWO applications of Simpsons rule?

Is that just saying use Simpsons rule twice to get the area? O_O
