Answer

Final Answer: \( \boxed{a=5, b=8, f(x)= 4x^{5} - 5x^{3}} \)

Steps

Step 1 :The given limit is a Riemann sum for the integral of a function over the interval [5,8]. The function is given by the expression inside the sum, and the limits of integration are the limits of the interval.

Step 2 :Therefore, we can say that a=5, b=8, and f(x) = 4x^5 - 5x^3.

Step 3 :Final Answer: \( \boxed{a=5, b=8, f(x)= 4x^{5} - 5x^{3}} \)
