Question: Find the function F such that d F d x = - 7 x + 3 1 and F ( 5 ) = 2 2

Find the function F such that
dFdx=-7x+31
and F(5)=22
Our goal: find F.We have to integrate and then substitute-and-solve to find it.
Write down the differential equation
On your paper, write down the given differential equation, dFdx=-7x+31.
Integrate
Multiply both sides bydx. You should have dF=(-7x+31)dx
Integate both sides. Get F=(-7x+31)dx
Now actually do the integration off and find the most general antiderivative.
Fgen(x)=
Find the value of the constant of integration
We were given F(5)=22. This is a point on the curve.
(6) Plug x=5 into the general Fgen(x), set it equal toF(5)=22, and solve to find C.
C=
Conclude
We've found the general solution and the constant of integration. We just need to package them together, and find the specific function F going through the given point.
Use the value ofC with your general Fgen,to form the final F.
F(x)=
Find the function F such that d F d x = - 7 x + 3
