1. Antiderivatives

2. Think About It Suppose this is the graph of the derivative of a function What do we know about the original function? Critical numbers Where it is increasing, decreasing What do we not know? 2 f '(x)

3. The work to this point has involved finding and applying the first or second derivative of a function. In this chapter we will reverse the process. If we know the derivative of a function how do we obtain the original function? The process is called antidifferentiation or integration.

4. Anti-Derivatives Derivatives give us the rate of change of a function What if we know the rate of change … Can we find the original function? If F '(x) = f(x) Then F(x) is an antiderivative of f(x) Example – let F(x) = 12x 2 Then F '(x) = 24x = f(x) So F(x) = 12x 2 is the antiderivative of f(x) = 24x 4

5. Finding An Antiderivative Given f(x) = 12x 3 What is the antiderivative, F(x)? Use the power rule backwards Recall that for f(x) = x n … f '(x) = n x n – 1 That is … Multiply the expression by the exponent Decrease exponent by 1 Now do opposite (in opposite order) Increase exponent by 1 Divide expression by new exponent 5

6. Family of Antiderivatives Consider a family of parabolas f(x) = x 2 + n which differ only by value of n Note that f '(x) is the same for each version of f Now go the other way … The antiderivative of 2x must be different for each of the original functions So when we take an antiderivative We specify F(x) + C Where C is an arbitrary constant 6 This indicates that multiple antiderivatives could exist from one derivative

7. Indefinite Integral The family of antiderivatives of a function f indicated by The symbol is a stylized S to indicate summation 7

8. Indefinite Integral The indefinite integral is a family of functions The + C represents an arbitrary constant The constant of integration 8

9. Properties of Indefinite Integrals The power rule The integral of a sum (difference) is the sum (difference) of the integrals 9

10. Properties of Indefinite Integrals The derivative of the indefinite integral is the original function A constant can be factored out of the integral 10
