Example Question #41 : Finding Integrals

What is the indefinite integral of $\sin(x)$ ?

Possible Answers:

$-\sin(x)+c$

$-\cos(x)$

$\cos(x)$

$-\cos(x)+c$

$2\sin(x^2)+c$

Correct answer:

$-\cos(x)+c$

Explanation:

$\sin(x)$ is a special function.

The indefinite integral is $\int \sin(x) {\mathrm{d} x}=-\cos(x)+c$ .

Even though it is a special function, we still need to include a . stands for "constant". Since taking the derivative of a constant whole number will always equal , we include the to anticipate the possiblity of the equation actually being x^2+5 or x^2-100 instead of just x^2 .

Example Question #81 : Asymptotic And Unbounded Behavior

What is the indefinite integral of 6x^2+8 ?

Possible Answers:

2x^3-8x-c

2x^3+8x+c

$\frac{2}{3}x^3+8x+c$

12x

Correct answer:

2x^3+8x+c

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the anti-power rule or reverse power rule. We raise the exponent on the variables by one and divide by the new exponent.

For this problem, we'll treat as 8x^0 since anything to the zero power is one.

$\int 6x^2+8{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{6x^{2+1}}{2+1}+\frac{8x^{0+1}}{0+1}+c$

Since the derivative of any constant is , when we take the indefinite integral, we add a to compensate for any constant that might be there.

From here we can simplify.

$\int 6x^2+8{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{6x^{3}}{3}+\frac{8x^{1}}{1}+c$

$\int 6x^2+8{\mathrm{d} x}=2x^3+8x+c$

Example Question #71 : Calculus Ii — Integrals

What is the indefinite integral of x+1 ?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{1}{2}x^2-x+c$

$\frac{1}{2}x^2+x+c$

2x^2+x+c

$2x^2+\frac{x}{2}+c$

Correct answer:

$\frac{1}{2}x^2+x+c$

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the anti-power rule or reverse power rule. We raise the exponent on the variables by one and divide by the new exponent.

For this problem, we'll treat as 1x^0 since anything to the zero power is one.

$\int x+1{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{x^{1+1}}{1+1}+\frac{1x^{0+1}}{0+1}+c$

Since the derivative of any constant is , when we take the indefinite integral, we add a to compensate for any constant that might be there.

From here we can simplify.

$\int x+1{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{x^{2}}{2}+\frac{x^{1}}{1}+c$

$\int x+1{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{1}{2}x^2+x+c$

Example Question #72 : Calculus Ii — Integrals

What is the indefinite integral of 12x^2+13x+4 ?

Possible Answers:

$12x^3+\frac{13}{2}x^2+4x+c$

$4x^3-\frac{13}{2}x^2+4x-c$

144x+169

$4x^3+\frac{13}{2}x^2+4x+c$

24x+13

Correct answer:

$4x^3+\frac{13}{2}x^2+4x+c$

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the anti-power rule or reverse power rule. We raise the exponent on the variables by one and divide by the new exponent.

For this problem, we'll treat as 4x^0 since anything to the zero power is one.

$\int 12x^2+13x+4{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{12x^{2+1}}{2+1}+\frac{13x^{1+1}}{1+1}+\frac{4x^{0+1}}{0+1}+c$

Since the derivative of any constant is , when we take the indefinite integral, we add a to compensate for any constant that might be there.

From here we can simplify.

$\int 12x^2+13x+4{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{12x^{3}}{3}+\frac{13x^{2}}{2}+\frac{4x^{1}}{1}+c$

$\int 12x^2+13x+4{\mathrm{d} x}=4x^3+\frac{13}{2}x^2+4x+c$

$\frac{1}{2}x^4+x^{2}+c$

$\frac{2}{5}x^5+\frac{1}{4}x^{2}+c$

$8x^2+\frac{1}{2}+c$

$\frac{1}{2}x^5+c$

Correct answer:

$\frac{2}{5}x^5+\frac{1}{4}x^{2}+c$

Explanation:

To find the indefinite integral, we can use the reverse power rule: we raise the exponent by one and then divide by our new exponent.

$\int 2x^4+\frac{1}{2}x{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{2x^{4+1}}{4+1}+\frac{\frac{1}{2}x^{1+1}}{1+1}+c$

Remember when taking the indefinite integral to include a to cover any potential constants.

Simplify.

$\int 2x^4+\frac{1}{2}x{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{2x^{5}}{5}+\frac{\frac{1}{2}x^{2}}{2}+c$

$\int 2x^4+\frac{1}{2}x{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{2}{5}x^5+\frac{1}{4}x^{2}+c$

What is the indefinite integral of 3x+12 ?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{3}{2}x^2+12x$

$\frac{3}{2}x^2+12x+c$

$\frac{2}{3}x^2-12+c$

Correct answer:

$\frac{3}{2}x^2+12x+c$

Explanation:

To find the indefinite integral, we can use the reverse power rule: we raise the exponent by one and then divide by our new exponent.

We are going to treat as 12x^0 since anything to the zero power is one.

$\int 3x+12{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{3x^{1+1}}{1+1}+\frac{12x^{0+1}}{0+1}+c$

Remember when taking the indefinite integral to include a to cover any potential constants.

Simplify.

$\int 3x+12{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{3x^{2}}{2}+\frac{12x^{1}}{1}+c$

$\int 3x+12{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{3}{2}x^2+12x+c$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{5}{3}x^3+6x^2+cx$

5x+12+c

$\frac{5}{3}x^3+6x^2$

$\frac{3}{5}x^3+\frac{1}{6}x^2+c$

$\frac{5}{3}x^3+6x^2+c$

Correct answer:

$\frac{5}{3}x^3+6x^2+c$

Explanation:

To find the indefinite integral, we use the reverse power rule. That means we raise the exponent on the variables by one and then divide by the new exponent.

$\int 5x^2+12x{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{5x^{2+1}}{2+1}+\frac{12x^{1+1}}{1+1}+c$

Remember to include a when computing integrals. This is a place holder for any constant that might be in the new expression.

$\int 5x^2+12x{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{5x^{3}}{3}+\frac{12x^{2}}{2}+c$

$\int 5x^2+12x{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{5}{3}x^3+\frac{12}{2}x^2+c$

$\int 5x^2+12x{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{5}{3}x^3+6x^2+c$

Example Question #2231 : High School Math

What is the indefinite integral of -8x^2+15 ?

Possible Answers:

-16x

$\frac{8}{3}x^3-15x+c$

$-\frac{8}{3}x^3+15x$

$-\frac{8}{3}x^3+15x+c$

Correct answer:

$-\frac{8}{3}x^3+15x+c$

Explanation:

To find the indefinite integral, we use the reverse power rule. That means we raise the exponent on the variables by one and then divide by the new exponent.

$\int -8x^2+15{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{-8x^{2+1}}{2+1}+\frac{15x^{0+1}}{0+1}+c$

Remember to include a when doing integrals. This is a placeholder for any constant that might be in the new expression.

$\int -8x^2+15{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{-8x^{3}}{3}+\frac{15x^{1}}{1}+c$

$\int -8x^2+15{\mathrm{d} x}=-\frac{8}{3}x^3+15x+c$

Correct answer:

$\frac{1}{4}x^4+\frac{2}{3}x^3+5x+c$

Explanation:

To find the indefinite integral, we can use the reverse power rule. Raise the exponent of the variable by one and then divide by that new exponent.

We're going to treat as 5x^0 .

$\int x^3+2x^2+5{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{x^{3+1}}{3+1}+\frac{2x^{2+1}}{2+1}+\frac{5x^{0+1}}{0+1}+c$
