Math Problem Statement

Integrate the functions. Use a capital 'C' for any constant term. a. ∫5 dx = ___ b. ∫du = ___

Solution

Let's solve the integrals shown in the image.

a. 5dx\int 5 \, dx

To integrate a constant, you multiply the constant by the variable of integration, in this case xx, and then add the constant of integration CC:

5dx=5x+C\int 5 \, dx = 5x + C

b. du\int du

The integral of dudu is simply the variable uu plus the constant of integration CC:

du=u+C\int du = u + C

Solutions:

  • a. 5dx=5x+C\int 5 \, dx = 5x + C
  • b. du=u+C\int du = u + C

Would you like any further details or explanations on these integrals?

Here are some related questions:

  1. What happens when you integrate a variable instead of a constant?
  2. How does the power rule apply to integration?
  3. What is the general formula for integrating constants?
  4. How would you handle definite integrals with these expressions?
  5. How does differentiation relate to integration?

Tip: When integrating a constant, always remember to add the constant of integration CC, as indefinite integrals represent a family of functions.
