Finding Functions from Derivatives
In Exercises 37–40, find the function with the given derivative whose graph passes through the point P.
f'(x) = 2x − 1, P(0,0)
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
To find the original function f(x) from its derivative f'(x) = 2x - 1, we need to perform integration. The process of finding a function from its derivative is called antidifferentiation or integration.
Integrate the derivative f'(x) = 2x - 1 with respect to x. This means we need to find the indefinite integral of 2x - 1. The integral of 2x is x^2, and the integral of -1 is -x. Therefore, the integral of f'(x) is: ∫(2x - 1) dx = x^2 - x + C, where C is the constant of integration.
The constant C represents an unknown value that can be determined using the given point P(0,0). Substitute x = 0 and f(x) = 0 into the equation f(x) = x^2 - x + C to find C.
Substituting the point P(0,0) into the equation gives: 0 = 0^2 - 0 + C, which simplifies to C = 0.
Now that we have determined C, the function f(x) is x^2 - x. Therefore, the function whose derivative is 2x - 1 and passes through the point P(0,0) is f(x) = x^2 - x.

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Antiderivatives
An antiderivative of a function is another function whose derivative is the original function. To find a function from its derivative, we perform integration, which is the reverse process of differentiation. In this context, finding the antiderivative of f'(x) = 2x - 1 will yield the original function f(x).

Antiderivatives
Integration
Integration is the process of finding the antiderivative of a function. It involves determining a function whose derivative is the given function. For f'(x) = 2x - 1, integrating with respect to x will provide the general form of f(x), which includes an arbitrary constant C.

Initial Conditions
Initial conditions are used to find the specific solution to a differential equation by determining the constant of integration. Given the point P(0,0), we substitute x = 0 and f(x) = 0 into the integrated function to solve for C, ensuring the function passes through the specified point.
