Antiderivatives and Indefinite Integration Lesson 5.1
Reversing Differentiation An antiderivative of function f is a function F which satisfies F’ = f Consider the following: We note that two antiderivatives of the same function differ by a constant
Reversing Differentiation General antiderivatives f(x) = 6x 2 F(x) = 2x 3 + C because F’(x) = 6x 2 k(x) = sec 2 (x) K(x) = tan(x) + C because K’(x) = k(x)
Differential Equation A differential equation in x and y involves x, y, and derivatives of y Examples Solution – find a function whose derivative is the differential given
Differential Equation When Then one such function is The general solution is
Notation for Antiderivatives We are starting with Change to differential form Then the notation for antiderivatives is "The antiderivative of f with respect to x"

Slope Fields Slope of a function f(x) at a point a given by f ‘(a) Suppose we know f ‘(x) substitute different values for a draw short slope lines for successive values of y Example
Slope Fields For a large portion of the graph, when We can trace the line for a specific F(x) specifically when the C = -3
Finding an Antiderivative Using a Slope Field Given We can trace the version of the original F(x) which goes through the origin.
Vertical Motion Consider the fact that the acceleration due to gravity a(t) = -32 fps Then v(t) = -32t + v 0 Also s(t) = -16t 2 + v 0 t + s 0 A balloon, rising vertically with velocity = 8 releases a sandbag at the instant it is 64 feet above the ground How long until the sandbag hits the ground What is its velocity when this happens? Why?
Rectilinear Motion A particle, initially at rest, moves along the x- axis at velocity of At time t = 0, its position is x = 3 Find the velocity and position functions for the particle Find all values of t for which the particle is at rest
