  • Indefinite Integrals and the Net Change Theorem

    • An indefinite integral is defined as $\int f(x)dx = F(x)+ C$, where $F$ satisfies $F'(x) = f(x)$ and where $C$ is any constant.
    • With this in mind, we define the indefinite integral as follows: $\int f(x)dx = F(x)+ C$ , where $F$ satisfies $F'(x) = f(x)$ and $C$ is any constant.
    • Note that the indefinite integral yields a family of functions.
