검증된 단계별 안내

Identify the integral to evaluate: $\int_{-1}^{1} (3x^{2} - 4x + 7) \, dx$.

Split the integral into the sum of integrals of each term: $\int_{-1}^{1} 3x^{2} \, dx - \int_{-1}^{1} 4x \, dx + \int_{-1}^{1} 7 \, dx$.

Find the antiderivative of each term separately: For \$3x^{2}$, the antiderivative is \(3 \cdot \frac{x^{3}}{3} = x^{3}$; for \)-4x$, it is \(-4 \cdot \frac{x^{2}}{2} = -2x^{2}$; for $7$, it is \)7x$.

Write the combined antiderivative function: $F(x) = x^{3} - 2x^{2} + 7x$.

Evaluate $F(x)$ at the upper limit $x=1$ and the lower limit $x=-1$, then subtract: $F(1) - F(-1)$ to find the value of the definite integral.

Definite Integral

A definite integral calculates the net area under a curve between two specified limits. It is represented as ∫_a^b f(x) dx, where a and b are the lower and upper bounds. The result is a number that represents the accumulation of the function's values over the interval.

Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

This theorem links differentiation and integration, stating that if F is an antiderivative of f, then ∫_a^b f(x) dx = F(b) - F(a). It allows evaluation of definite integrals by finding antiderivatives instead of using limits of Riemann sums.

Polynomial Integration

Integrating polynomials involves applying the power rule: ∫ x^n dx = (x^(n+1))/(n+1) + C for n ≠ -1. Each term of the polynomial is integrated separately, making it straightforward to find antiderivatives for functions like 3x² - 4x + 7.
