The rate at which water flows out of a pipe, in gallons per hour, is given by a differentiable function $R$ of time $t$. The table below shows the rate as measured every 3 hours for a 24-hour period.
| \begin{tabular}{ c } $t$ |
| (hours) |

\hline 0 & 9.6
3 & 10.4 6 & 10.8 9 & 11.2 12 & 11.4 15 & 11.3 18 & 10.7 21 & 10.2 24 & 9.6 \end{tabular}
(a) Use a midpoint Riemann sum with 4 subdivisions of equal length to approximate $\int_{0}^{24} R(t)\, dt$. Using correct units, explain the meaning of your answer in terms of water flow.
(b) Is there some time $t$, $0 < t < 24$, such that $R'(t) = 0$? Justify your answer.
(c) The rate of water flow $R(t)$ can be approximated by $Q(t) = \frac{1}{79}\left(768 + 23t - t^2\right)$. Use $Q(t)$ to approximate the average rate of water flow during the 24-hour time period. Indicate units of measure.
