You need to use the given Riemann sum to evaluate the definite integral such that:
`lim_(n->oo) sum_(i=1)^n (2/n)(5 + i(2/n))^10 = lim_(n->oo) sum_(i=1)^n Delta x_i*f(x_i)`
Notice that `f(x_i) = (5 + i(2/n))^10 , hence x_i = 5 + i(2/n) =>` `Delta x_i = 2/n = (7-5)/n`
`lim_(n->oo) sum_(i=1)^n (2/n)(5 + i(2/n))^10 =...

You need to use the given Riemann sum to evaluate the definite integral such that:
`lim_(n->oo) sum_(i=1)^n (2/n)(5 + i(2/n))^10 = lim_(n->oo) sum_(i=1)^n Delta x_i*f(x_i)`
Notice that `f(x_i) = (5 + i(2/n))^10 , hence x_i = 5 + i(2/n) =>` `Delta x_i = 2/n = (7-5)/n`
`lim_(n->oo) sum_(i=1)^n (2/n)(5 + i(2/n))^10 = int_5^7 x^10 dx = x^11/11|_5^7`
`int_5^7 x^10 dx = (7^11 - 5^11)/11`
Hence, evaluating the definite integral, using the given Riemann sum, yields `int_5^7 x^10 dx = (7^11 - 5^11)/11.`
