I'm not entirely sure on the properties of limits, but this seems to work. Could someone look over this for me?

What is it that you're trying to do?

Please state the problem.

Not really a problem here, just wanting to make sure I'm doing this correctly. I'm trying to show that ∫ y' dx = ∫ dy through definitions.

What are you using for the definition of the indefinite integral?

The Riemann sum is generally used for the definite integral.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
