Integration

Integration is a simple way of "quickly" adding. In cases where you have a curve under a graph for example a velocity-time graph, the area under the curve will give you the distance. If you know the equation of the curve, integrating it will allow you to find the distance. Integration is also the opposite of differentiation.

What's the point of Maths?


The points P (2,3.6) and Q(2.2,2.4) lie on the curve y=f(x) . Use P and Q to estimate the gradient of the curve at the point where x=2 .


Integral of 1/(x^3 + 2x^2 -x - 2)


Why is the definite integral between negative limits of a function with positive values negative even though the area bound by the x-axis is positive? for example the integral of y=x^2 between x=-2 and x=-1
