Answer

$f\left( t \right) = \frac{{{t^4}}}{{12}} - 2{t^2} + {C_1}t + {C_2}$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & f''\left( t \right) = {t^2} - 4 \cr & {\text{Find the general antiderivative }}f'\left( t \right) \cr & {\text{Using the formulas in Table 2 }}\left( {{\text{see page 358}}} \right) \cr & {\text{Function: }}cf\left( t \right) \to {\text{Particular antiderivative: }}cF\left( t \right) \cr & {\text{Function:}}{t^n}\left( {n \ne - 1} \right) \to {\text{Particular antiderivative: }}\frac{{{t^{n + 1}}}}{{n + 1}} \cr & {\text{we obtain}} \cr & f'\left( t \right) = \frac{{{t^{2 + 1}}}}{{2 + 1}} - 4t + {C_1} \cr & f'\left( t \right) = \frac{{{t^3}}}{3} - 4t + {C_1} \cr & {\text{Find the general antiderivative }}f\left( t \right) \cr & {\text{Using the formulas in Table 2 }}\left( {{\text{see page 358}}} \right) \cr & {\text{Function: }}cf\left( t \right) \to {\text{Particular antiderivative: }}cF\left( t \right) \cr & {\text{Function:}}{t^n}\left( {n \ne - 1} \right) \to {\text{Particular antiderivative: }}\frac{{{t^{n + 1}}}}{{n + 1}} \cr & {\text{we obtain}} \cr & f\left( t \right) = \frac{{{t^4}}}{{3\left( 4 \right)}} - 4\left( {\frac{{{t^2}}}{2}} \right) + {C_1}t + {C_2} \cr & f\left( t \right) = \frac{{{t^4}}}{{12}} - 2{t^2} + {C_1}t + {C_2} \cr} $$
