Constant Factor Rule

Reference > Calculus: Integration

Description
cf(x)dx=cf(x)dx\int cf(x) \, dx=c\int f(x) \, dx
Examples
3cosxdx\int 3\cos{x} \, dx
1
Use Constant Factor Rule: cf(x)dx=cf(x)dx\int cf(x) \, dx=c\int f(x) \, dx.
3cosxdx3\int \cos{x} \, dx

2
Use Trigonometric Integration: the integral of cosx\cos{x} is sinx\sin{x}.
3sinx3\sin{x}

3
Add constant.
3sinx+C3\sin{x}+C

Done
