Answer

$$ f^{\prime}(t)= 2t-3\sin t, \quad f(0)=5 $$ We find that $$ f(t)= t^{2}+3\cos t+2 $$

Work Step by Step

$$ f^{\prime}(t)= 2t-3\sin t, \quad f(0)=5 $$ The general anti-derivative of $ f^{\prime}(t)= 2t-3\sin t $ is $$ f(t)= t^{2}+3\cos t+C $$ To determine C we use the fact that $f(0)=5$: $$ f(0)= (0)^{2}+3\cos (0)+C=5 $$ $ \Rightarrow $ $$ 3+C=5 \quad \Rightarrow \quad C=2, $$ so $$ f(t)= t^{2}+3\cos t+2 $$
