Sample problem, #10, Lesson 4.9

Find the most general antiderivative of the function. Check your answer using differentiation.

Given problem, #10, Lesson 4.9
Using our knowledge of derivatives, we find the antiderivative.
We check our work by taking the derivative of our antiderivative. We see that we have arrived back at the function we began with.

Sample problem, #16, Lesson 4.9

Find f

Given problem, #16, Lesson 4.9

We use our derivative knowledge to calculate the antiderivative two times. The last line has some algebraic simplification.

We check our work by starting at our answer and differentiating twice. We see that our work must have been done correctly, because we have arrived back at our starting problem.

Sample problem, #36, lesson 4.9

A particle moves with acceleration function . Its initial velocity is m/s and its initial displacement is m. Find its position after t seconds. Given problem, #36, lesson 4.9
First we integrate the acceleration function. This results in a general form of the velocity equation.
Because we were given the initial velocity, we can solve for C and get the complete velocity equation.
Now we integrate the velocity formula to get the general position formula. Given the intial position of 10, we can arrive at the position formula at any value for t.
