Steps for calculating ∫abf(x) dx Step 1:Find the indefinite integral ∫f(x) dx. Let this be F(x). There is no need to keep integration constant C. This is because if we consider F(x) + C instead of F(x), we get ∫abf(x) dx = [F(x) + C]ab= [F(b) + C] – [F...
How to perform integration (Antiderivation)? To perform integration, also known as antiderivation, you need to follow these steps: Identify the function to be integrated and determine the limits of integration. Use integration rules or techniques to find the antiderivative of the function. ...
The "+C" is used in indefinite integrals (ones without limits of integration) to signify that after integrating, you get a family of functions with the same derivative. For example [itex] x^3 [/itex] and [itex] x^3 +4 [/itex] both have the same derivative, so if you had [i...
