I need help with finding the antiderivative of
1. y=\frac{\ x^2-47x+33}{10}
and
2. y=-.03(x-6)^3+x
My attempts:
1. y=.1[(x^3/3)-(47x^2/2)+33x)]
2. y=-.03x-.18^3+x
y=(\frac{\-.03x^2}{2}-.18x)^3+(x^2/2)

Oh I guess you edited it since I last saw it. The first integral is correct now. For the second just try a substitution.

Come on guys there are easy ones!

1. \int \frac{\ x^2-47x+33}{10} dx = \frac{1}{10} \int x^2 - 47x + 33 dx = \frac{1}{10} ( \int x^2 dx - \int 47x dx + \int 33 dx)

Please tell me you know the reverse power rule?

Edit: Sorry I just saw your attempt. It is correct.

2. Your attempt at the 2nd one doesn't seem correct.

\int \frac{-3}{100}(x-6)^3 + x dx = \frac{-3}{100} \int (x-6)^3 dx + \int x dx.

If you really need it, for that first integral do substitution u= x-6
 
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...
