Here is the problem: integrate (x plus 4) to the power 5.

2
00:00:04.804 --> 00:00:11.143
Find the indefinite integral (antiderivative) of (x plus 4) to the power 5 with respect to x.

3
00:00:11.943 --> 00:00:13.418
Start with the integral.

4
00:00:13.867 --> 00:00:25.570
Linear substitution u equals ax plus b with the power rule: the integral of u to the power n du equals u to the power n plus 1/(n plus 1), divide by a.

5
00:00:26.020 --> 00:00:28.969
Simplify and add the constant of integration.

6
00:00:29.769 --> 00:00:34.425
So the answer is (x plus 4) to the power 6 over 6 plus C.

7
00:00:34.875 --> 00:00:45.603
An antiderivative F satisfies F prime of x equals f(x). Because the derivative of any constant is 0, every antiderivative differs by a constant C.

00:00:46.403 --> 00:00:52.138
Differentiated the answer and compared it with the integrand at 8 sample points, which checks out.
