When completing a rectal examination on a patient, you may position your patient in a variety of ways. All of the following positions will allow for a thorough rectal examination except:

Numerical integration fundamentally relies on

The formula for the multiple-application version of Simpson 1/3 over n intervals can be obtained by using the single-application of the rule n times.

Numerical integration is useful (check all that apply)

Simpson’s 1/3 rule has an error of zero when the integrand is (check all that apply)

When examining the prostate of a 32-year-old patient the nurse practitioner notes that the prostate is approximately 4cm, firm, smooth and slightly movable. The nurse practitioner correctly notes that this is
