Math Problem Statement

Solve the indefinite integral of the function x^2 with respect to x.

Solution

The expression in the image appears to be an integral:

x2dx\int x^2 \, dx

This represents the indefinite integral of x2x^2 with respect to xx. To solve this:

x2dx=x33+C\int x^2 \, dx = \frac{x^3}{3} + C

where CC is the constant of integration.

  3. How do integrals apply to finding the area under a curve?
  4. What is the power rule for integration and how does it apply to different powers of xx?
  5. How do you find the integral of more complex functions, like polynomials?

Tip: When integrating, remember that constants always add a "+ C" term since the integral represents a family of functions.
