(1) Using a trapezoidal sum, we approximate the integral by


\displaystyle\int_0^8R(t)\,\mathrm dt\approx\frac{(R(0)+R(2))(2-0)+(R(3)+R(2))(3-2)+(R(7)+R(3))(7-3)+(R(8)+R(7))(8-7)}2


\displaystyle\int_0^8R(t)\,\mathrm dt\approx24.830

measured in gallons of water.

(2) Notice that the table shows the specific values of
R(t) increasing, meaning
R'(t)>0. There's not enough evidence to suggest that we have
R'(t)=0 at any time.
