How do you do simple integration?

If you have an expression like 6x^2, to integrate it you have to add 1 to the power. Therefore, the new power will be 3. Then divide the whole expression by the new power so it will be 6x^3 divided by 3, which is 2x^3. The rule with simple integration is always:

  1. Add 1 to the power -
  2. Divide the whole expression by the new power
