1.9.21 Constant of integration

Why must an indefinite integral include +C+C+C?

A

Because constants disappear when differentiated, so all possible antiderivatives differ by a constant.

B

The other integrated terms may be non-zero at the initial input.

C

That it belongs to the correct family of curves.

D

y=2x3−2x2+3x+Cy=2x^3-2x^2+3x+Cy=2x3−2x2+3x+C
