THE FINAL BLOG POST

1. Finding antiderivatives is difficult because it is sometimes confusing to decide which methods to use, such as u-substitution, which is the most difficult concept for me. The hardest thing to do is a trigonometric function because it is difficult to memorize the derivatives/antiderivatives of those.

2. Find F(x) when f(x) = x^2-sin(x)     F(x)= (x^3)/3 + cos(x)

Find F(x) when (tan^2)x+3 dx

3. Find F(x) when f(x)= 3x^2 - 1/x^3    F(x)= x^3 - (x^-2)/2

1. Using U-Substitution to evaluate integrals is difficult because I always lose track of what to do with the du and what number to put out in front of the integral. I just make simple mistakes each time that cost me. I have only gotten a couple u-substitution questions right in my life. Out of numerous.

2.Find the definite integral of x(1 - 3x^2)^4dx

Find the definite integral of  (1+sec(x))^2(sec(x)tan(x))dx

Find f(x) when f(x) = x(2-3x)^1/2  dx

1. I can find the area between two curves. This is difficult because the equations must be graphed to see which one is on top, but this concept as a whole is fairly easy, as a step into washer/disk method.

2. Find area of the region bounded by : f(x) = 2x-2    g(x) = -x^2-2x+3

Find area of the region bounded by : f(x) = 2x^3-1, g(x) = 2x-1

1. Using Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part I is not very difficult all, as long as I can remember what it is. And FTC Part 2 is a little harder but when I look in my binder and recall it I'm sure it won't be as difficult as I remember. Still don't know if  I did it right.

1. Using disks is difficult when attempting to figure out what to subtract or add in the equation for me. I learned a trick, but the hard part will be recalling that. And remembering to take it in terms of x or y's.

2. Region bounded by f(x)= sqrt(x) and x=4 revolved about x axis.
