Question
**Estimating the Area of a Region Using Riemann Sums**

Consider the function \( f(x) = x^2 - 2x \) over the interval \( 0 \leq x \leq 3 \).

**a) Evaluation of Riemann Sum**

- Use 6 subintervals with right endpoints to estimate the area under the curve of \( f(x) \).

**b) Interpretation of the Riemann Sum**

- Explain what the Riemann Sum calculated in part (a) represents.

**c) Formula for the Exact Net Area**

- Derive a formula to find the exact net area bounded by \( f(x) = x^2 - 2x \), the x-axis, and the limits from 0 to 3.
