Q. Calculate the integral and write the answer in simplest form.∫(−2+4x5−x−3)dxAnswer:
Break down the integral: Break down the integral into separate terms.\int(\(-2 + 4x^5 - x^{−3})dx = \int(−2)dx + \int(4x^5)dx - \int(x^{−3})dx
Integrate each term separately: Integrate each term separately.For the first term, ∫(−2)dx, the integral of a constant −2 with respect to x is −2x.For the second term, ∫(4x5)dx, we use the power rule for integration, which states that ∫(xn)dx=(n+1)x(n+1) for n=−1. Therefore, the integral of 4x5 with respect to x is 64x(5+1) or −20.For the third term, −21, we again use the power rule for integration. The integral of −22 with respect to x is −24 or −25.
Combine and simplify: Combine the results of the integrals and simplify.The combined integral is −2x+32x6−(−21x−2).Simplify the expression by combining like terms and adjusting signs.The simplified result is −2x+32x6+21x−2.
Add constant of integration: Add the constant of integration C to the result.The final answer with the constant of integration is −2x+(32)x6+(21)x−2+C.
