Question

Particular antiderivatives
f(x) = x^5 - 2x^-2 + 1; F(1) = 0

Answer 1

\[x^{5}-2x^{-2}+1\]

Answer 2

i know the antiderivative is \[\frac{ x^6 }{ 6 } -\frac{ 2 }{ x }+x+C\]

Answer 3

but when i try and find C i come out with -5/6 when the answer should be -19/6

Answer 4

yeah that was the problem
\(-\frac{2}{x}\) should be \(\frac{2}{x}\) with no minus sign
that is why it didn't work

Answer 5

ohhhhh i see the error now... thank you
