Question 1381: Antiderivative Value Retaining the Actual Constant

Original question and givens

Step-by-step derivation

domain=R; coefficient lists are in ascending powers

constant term first; rational pairs=[numerator,denominator]

f coefficients ascending=[-7, 6, 1, 2]

seek F₀ with constant coefficient0 and F₀′=f

primitive coefficient at degree1 := div(-7, 1)

primitive coefficient at degree1 = -7

differentiate back coefficient0 := mul(-7, 1)

differentiate back coefficient0 = -7

primitive coefficient at degree2 := div(6, 2)

primitive coefficient at degree2 = 3

differentiate back coefficient1 := mul(3, 2)

differentiate back coefficient1 = 6

primitive coefficient at degree3 := div(1, 3)

primitive coefficient at degree3 = 1/3

differentiate back coefficient2 := mul(1/3, 3)

differentiate back coefficient2 = 1

primitive coefficient at degree4 := div(2, 4)

primitive coefficient at degree4 = 1/2

differentiate back coefficient3 := mul(1/2, 4)

differentiate back coefficient3 = 2

[0, -7, 3, 1/3, 1/2]

all derivative coefficients agree with f

constant coefficient+C := sum(0, -7)

constant coefficient+C = -7

F(x) multiply at degree4 := mul(0, -3)

F(x) multiply at degree4 = 0

F(x) add coefficient4 := sum(0, 1/2)

F(x) add coefficient4 = 1/2

F(x) multiply at degree3 := mul(1/2, -3)

F(x) multiply at degree3 = -3/2

F(x) add coefficient3 := sum(-3/2, 1/3)

F(x) add coefficient3 = -7/6

F(x) multiply at degree2 := mul(-7/6, -3)

F(x) multiply at degree2 = 7/2

F(x) add coefficient2 := sum(7/2, 3)

F(x) add coefficient2 = 13/2

F(x) multiply at degree1 := mul(13/2, -3)

F(x) multiply at degree1 = -39/2

F(x) add coefficient1 := sum(-39/2, -7)

F(x) add coefficient1 = -53/2

F(x) multiply at degree0 := mul(-53/2, -3)

F(x) multiply at degree0 = 159/2

F(x) add coefficient0 := sum(159/2, -7)

F(x) add coefficient0 = 145/2

x=-3; additive constant=-7

F(x)=145/2
