00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.156
Here is the problem: integrate 2x plus 1 from 0 to 5.

2
00:00:04.606 --> 00:00:11.154
Evaluate the definite integral of 2 x plus 1 from x equals 0 to x equals 5.

3
00:00:11.954 --> 00:00:13.823
Start with the definite integral.

4
00:00:14.273 --> 00:00:21.703
Power rule: the integral of x to the power n dx equals x to the power n plus 1/(n plus 1).

5
00:00:22.153 --> 00:00:28.666
Constant multiple rule: the integral of k times f dx equals k the integral of f dx.

6
00:00:29.116 --> 00:00:33.458
Constant rule: the integral of k dx equals kx.

7
00:00:34.258 --> 00:00:36.592
Sum rule: integrate term by term.

8
00:00:37.042 --> 00:00:38.087
Antiderivative.

9
00:00:38.537 --> 00:00:41.126
Apply the fundamental theorem of calculus.

10
00:00:41.926 --> 00:00:43.517
So the answer is 30.

11
00:00:43.967 --> 00:00:53.034
A definite integral gives the signed area between the curve and the x-axis: area above the axis counts as positive and area below counts as negative.

12
00:00:53.834 --> 00:00:58.791
Differentiated the antiderivative and compared it with the integrand, which checks out.

13
00:00:59.241 --> 00:01:03.096
Adaptive Simpson prime s rule gives 30, which checks out.
