What is differentiation and integration?


An integral is an anti-derivative, meaning it will take the derivative we are assessing and return it back to its original function. Moreover, an integral is used to find the area under a curve. Differentiation is the opposite to integration and can be used to find the gradient of a curve.for example, y=f(x)= x2+xdy/dx= 2x+1integration of: 2x+1 = x2+x dx

Show the sum from n=0 to 200 of x^n given that x is not 1, is (1-x^201)/(1-x) hence find the sum of 1+2(1/2)+3(1/2)^2+...+200(1/2)^199


Given y=2x(x^2-1)^5, show that dy/dx = g(x)(x^2-1)^4 where g(x) is a function to be determined.
