e. none

amorfide · Answer

integrate the f'(x)
to get 8x^1/2 + C
f(1)=12
sub in x=1
then make C the subject
and you get your value of C
the sub in your value for C in the equation you got after integrating

I just want to say $$f(x)=8x^{1/2}+C \neq12$$

amorfide · Answer

sorry i made it equal to twelve when i should have made f(1)  equal to 12
