A. Review: Let us recall first the following differentiation formulas
(a) D x ( x )=1
n −1
(b) D x (x ¿¿ n)=nx , where nis any real number ¿
(c) D x [ a ( f ( x ) ) ]=a D x [ f ( x ) ]
(d) D x [ f ( x)± g( x )] =D x [ f ( x ) ] ± D x [ g ( x ) ]
B. Motivation
Theorem 11. (Theorems on Antidifferentiation)
(a) ∫ dx=x+C .
(b) If n is any real number∧n ≠−1 , then
n x n+1
∫ x dx= +C
n+1
(c) If a is any constant∧f is a function , then
∫ af ( x ) dx=a ∫ f ( x ) dx
C. Activity: The class will be divided into groups. Each group must choose a leader and
assign an equation to a member. After answering, the leader must send the answer to
me through messenger. You have 10 minutes to answer.

D. Abstraction
We will use the Theorems on Antidifferentiation to determine the antiderivatives.
1. Using (a) and (c) of the theorem, we have ∫ 3 dx=3 ∫ dx=3 x+ C .
