How do I use simple integration?

It's a simple process once you know the basics behind it.Let's take X2We have been asked to integrate this.The first thing is to always add 1 on to the power.X3Next thing is to divide by that same power.(X3/3)The final thing is to add on +C, as any regular number (without X) can be part of the term , as when it would be differentiated you will always lose that term! This gives a final answer of....(X3/3) + CThat is how you do simple integration, this method works for any X term, except when not being multiplied or divided by a different term.
