Homework Statement

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



I'm having issues with integrating functions. There seems to be this (x-x0) term that crops up everywhere. Last time it was (t - tau). It's always (variable - dummy variable) so far, but I don't understand why. I also tried plugging it into the original, but I didn't know how to take the derivative of an integral with a mix of dummy and real variables. I guess this is something I should have learned in calculus but never did?

Thanks a lot!
