Document Summary

Function: relationship between an independent and dependent variables. Derivative: rate of change (slope) at any point of a line. Derivative can be represented by: dy/dx, y", or f"(x) Constant of integration y = 6x2 + 3x + 1 vs y = 6x2 + 3x +2. The original functions are different due to the constant, however when taking the derivative, the answer is the same for both: y = 12x + 3. This creates a dilemma when going the opposite direction. When integrating a function, you must always account for the constant that may or may not be in the function by adding a + c. If there is a constant multiplied by the function, you can move it outside the integral and multiply after o. If there is more than one function inside an integral separated by addition or subtraction, you can separate them o.
