A definite integral is actually a numerical value, which the represents the area under a graph between two points. For example, if you integrated f(x) between two values (lets call them a and b), the answ...

First combine the two functions so that we have an equation for a to solve:

G(h(a)) = (3^x)^3 + 1 = 3^(3x) + 1 = 244

which gives

3^(3x) = 243

Now...

First, we differentiate y = x^2 + 3x + 2 to find the slope of the curve at any given x point:

dy/dx = 2x + 3

So at x = 1, dy/dx = 2 + 3 = 5

We know that straig...

Using the chain rule with u = 2x:

y = sin(2x) becomes y = sin(u)

dy/dx = dy/du * du/dx

dy/du = cos(u)

du/dx = 2

So dy/dx = dy/du * ...

Definite integrals produces a numerical answer. It is asking the question: what is the area under the curve f(x) between x=a and x=b.

Indefinite integrals produces a function. It is askin...
