We have learnt in Differentiation the formula for Differentiation as follows,

begin{array}{ccccc}& y & = & x^{m}& dfrac{dy}{dx} & = & mx^{m-1}end{array}

The derivative is derived by reducing the power of the original x term by one and multiplying the resulting term with the original power of the x term.

Since the Integration is the reverse of Differentiation, the formula for Integration of y=x^{n} can be written as

begin{array}{ccccc}& int y, dx & = & dfrac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}+C & nneq-1,,, n=integerend{array}

The Integral is derived by increasing the power of the x term by one and dividing the resulting term by n+1. The Integral is then added with the Constant of Integration, C.

We have also seen that when a constant multiplier exists in the function, it is maintained in the results of the Differentiation.

begin{array}{ccccc}& y & = & ax^{m}& dfrac{dy}{dx} & = & amx^{m-1}end{array}

Similarly, in the case of Integration, the constant multiplier is treated in the same way for a function, y=ax^{n}

begin{array}{ccccc}& int y, dx & = & int ax^{n}dx& & = & aint x^{n}dx& int y, dx & = & adfrac{x^{n+1}}{n+1} & nneq-1,,, n=integerend{array}

Integration Example 4B

Integrate this function, y=4x^{3}+2x^{2}+5x+1

begin{array}{ccccc}& y & = & 4x^{3}+2x^{2}+5x+1& int ydx & = & int(4x^{3}+2x^{2}+5x+1)dx+Cend{array}

We have learnt in the previous lesson that for a function y = u + v, the Integration is begin{array}{ccccc}& int y & = & int u, dx+int v, dxend{array}

begin{array}{ccccc}& int ydx & = & int(4x^{3}+2x^{2}+5x+1)dx+Cvspace{2mm}& & = & int4x^{3}dx+int2x^{2}dx+int5xdx+int1dx+Cvspace{2mm}& & = & 4dfrac{x^{4}}{4}+2dfrac{x^{3}}{3}+5dfrac{x^{2}}{2}+x+Cvspace{2mm}& int ydx & = & x^{4}+dfrac{2}{3}x^{3}+dfrac{5}{2}x^{2}+x+Cend{array}
