Why do you not add the 'plus c' when finding the area under a graph using integration even though you add it when normally integrating?

when integrating with the limits, you substitute in the two limits into the integral and then take them away. As both will have added the constant 'c', you are taking c away from c and so cancel out, so it is not necessary to include the constant.
