Blog 1/23/11

We learned about integration and integrals, and im struggling a little with it but I hope I can manage the quiz tomorrow better than the hw I did today. All integration is is doin the opposite of takin the derivative. Instead of multiplyin the coefficient by the exponent then subtractin one from the exponent like you do when you take the derivative, you ADD one to the exponent and DIVIDE the coefficient by the exponent. Sx^4dx
= x^5/5
= 1/5x^5+c
you must always remember to put plus c
at the end of the answer or it would be
considered wrong.
This can also be called the anti derivative
