    Jan 20, 2021 · 16 Answers to the question of the integral of 1 x 1 x are all based on an implicit assumption that the upper and lower limits of the integral are both positive real numbers. If we …

  3. Indefinite double integral - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    In calculus we've been introduced first with indefinite integral, then with the definite one. Then we've been introduced with the concept of double (definite) integral and multiple (definite) integ...

  4. What is the integral of $e^{-x^2/2}$ over $\\mathbb{R}$

    What is the integral of $$\int_ {-\infty}^ {\infty}e^ {-x^2/2}dx\,?$$ My working is here: = $-e^ (-1/2x^2)/x$ from negative infinity to infinity. What is the value of this?

  5. What is the integral of 0? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Feb 4, 2018 · The integral of 0 is C, because the derivative of C is zero. Also, it makes sense logically if you recall the fact that the derivative of the function is the function's slope, because …

  6. Integral of a derivative. - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Aug 9, 2017 · So, I can intuitively grasp that the derivative of the integral of a given function brings you back to that function. Is this also the case with the integral of the derivative?
