Finding Antiderivatives
In Exercises 1–16, find an antiderivative for each function. Do as many as you can mentally. Check your answers by differentiation.
−3x⁻⁴

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the function to find the antiderivative of: \(-3x^{-4}\).
Recall the power rule for antiderivatives: For \(f(x) = x^n\), an antiderivative is \(F(x) = \frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1} + C\), where \(n \neq -1\).
Apply the power rule to \(-3x^{-4}\) by increasing the exponent by 1: \(-4 + 1 = -3\).
Divide the coefficient by the new exponent: \(\frac{-3}{-3}\), and write the antiderivative as \(\frac{-3}{-3} x^{-3} + C\).
Simplify the expression and add the constant of integration \(C\) to represent the family of antiderivatives.

Antiderivative (Indefinite Integral)

An antiderivative of a function is another function whose derivative equals the original function. It represents the reverse process of differentiation and is expressed with a constant of integration since differentiation loses constant terms.

Power Rule for Integration

The power rule for integration states that the antiderivative of x^n (where n ≠ -1) is (x^(n+1)) / (n+1) plus a constant. This rule is essential for integrating polynomial and power functions like x⁻⁴.

Verification by Differentiation

After finding an antiderivative, differentiating it should return the original function. This step confirms the correctness of the antiderivative and helps avoid mistakes in integration.
