Hello, I can't seem to wrap my mind around this. I understand exponent properties, but for some reason when you throw that n in there it rocks my world. I was solving an induction problem, and a piece of the algebra that I sort of guessed at was this: (3n-3n-1) Which after factoring becomes...

Thank you Mark for the insight. And you are right, there is no such word as intergration.

ok yes I am doing it wrong, its - 10 / sqrt(x). Thank you very much. Story of my life, I always miss a sign.

Ok so x + 5x-3/2 following the rule: x(n+1)/(n+1) gives x1+1 / (1+1) + 5x-3/2 + 2/2 / -(1/2) = x2/2 + 5x-1/2/ -(1/2 ) = -10x-1/2 or finally x2 / 2 + 10 / sqrt(x) I am still doing it wrong?

I am not quite at intergration yet, this is the last section of my Calculus I course, Calculus II is intergration. So for now our anti-d's are pretty simple and just follow some basic rules.

Homework Statement given f(x) = [x^3+5sqrt(x)]/x^2, find the anti-derivative Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution Hi I have attempted to solve this by re-writing the equation as a sum of two fractions: x^3/x^2 + 5sqrt(x)/x^2, simplying gives = x + 5/x^3/2 I then...
