When we find antiderivatives and add the constant C,
we are creating a family of curves for each value of C.

Indefinite Integral
The indefinite integral gives a family of functions!
(Not a value)
The indefinite integral always has a constant!

Vs.
The definite integral (later) gives a numerical
value.

Application problem
• A ball is thrown upward with an initial
velocity of 64 ft/ sec from an initial height
of 80 feet.
a. Find the position function, s(t)
b. When does the ball hit the ground?
Example
A particle moves along a coordinate axis in such a way that
3
its acceleration is modeled by a t
2t for time t > 0.
If the particle is at s = 5 when t = 1 and has velocity v = - 2
at this time, where is it when t = 4?
