Question

Evaluate the integral
(3x^5 − x^−5 + 1) dx
So far I have 3*x^6/6-x^-4/-4

Answer 1

So far you're corect, but what about the 1 on the end?

Answer 2

is the answer \[3*x^6/6-x^-4/-4+1\] ?

Answer 3

No. Remember that the integral is area under the curve, but is also anti-derivative. Think about a derivative that gives you 1.

Answer 4

the derivative of x gives me 1right?

Answer 5

yes, so instead of +1, write +x
also don't forget +c in the end.

Answer 6

thanks

Answer 7

Yes. Sorry for the late response. I went to grab something.
