Step 1: Recall the definition of an antiderivative. The antiderivative of a function ƒ(x) is a function F(x) such that F'(x) = ƒ(x). For this problem, we are tasked with finding the antiderivative of ƒ(x) = 2 sin(x) + 1.
Step 2: Break the function ƒ(x) into its components. The function ƒ(x) = 2 sin(x) + 1 can be treated as the sum of two terms: 2 sin(x) and 1. Use the property of antiderivatives that states the antiderivative of a sum is the sum of the antiderivatives of the individual terms.
Step 3: Find the antiderivative of the first term, 2 sin(x). The antiderivative of sin(x) is -cos(x). Therefore, the antiderivative of 2 sin(x) is -2 cos(x).
Step 4: Find the antiderivative of the second term, 1. The antiderivative of a constant c is cx, so the antiderivative of 1 is x.
Step 5: Combine the results from Steps 3 and 4, and add the constant of integration C. The general antiderivative of ƒ(x) = 2 sin(x) + 1 is F(x) = -2 cos(x) + x + C. To verify, take the derivative of F(x) and confirm that it equals ƒ(x).

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Antiderivative

An antiderivative of a function is another function whose derivative is the original function. In calculus, finding antiderivatives is essential for solving problems related to integration. The general form of an antiderivative includes a constant of integration, C, since the derivative of a constant is zero, leading to multiple valid antiderivatives.

Basic Integration Rules

Basic integration rules are fundamental techniques used to find antiderivatives. For example, the integral of sin(x) is -cos(x), and the integral of a constant is the constant multiplied by x. Understanding these rules allows for the efficient computation of antiderivatives for various functions, including polynomials, trigonometric, and exponential functions.

Verification by Differentiation

Verification by differentiation involves taking the derivative of the antiderivative found to ensure it matches the original function. This step is crucial for confirming the correctness of the antiderivative. If the derivative of the antiderivative equals the original function, it validates the solution and reinforces the relationship between differentiation and integration.

{Use of Tech} Tumor size In a study conducted at Dartmouth College, mice with a particular type of cancerous tumor were treated with the chemotherapy drug Cisplatin. If the volume of one of these tumors at the time of treatment is V₀, then the volume of the tumor t days after treatment is modeled by the function V(t) = V₀ (0.99e⁻⁰·¹²¹⁶ᵗ + 0.01e⁰·²³⁹ᵗ). (Source: Undergraduate Mathematics for the Life Sciences, MAA Notes No. 81, 2013)


Plot a graph of y = 0.99e⁻⁰·¹²¹⁶ᵗ + 0.01e⁰·²³⁹ᵗ, for 0 ≤ t ≤ 16, and describe the tumor size over time. Use Newton’s method to determine when the tumor decreases to half of its original size.
