Answer

Incorrect term: $-11\displaystyle \int xdx=-11\cdot\frac{x^{2}}{2}+C\qquad $ (not $-11+C$ ) Correct answer:$\displaystyle \qquad x^{3}-\frac{11x^{2}}{2}+C$

Work Step by Step

$\displaystyle \int(3x^{2}-11x)dx=3\int x^{2}dx-11\int xdx$ Term by term: $3\displaystyle \int x^{2}dx=3\cdot\frac{x^{3}}{3}+C=x^{3}+C\qquad $ (correct) $-11\displaystyle \int xdx=-11\cdot\frac{x^{2}}{2}+C\qquad $ (not $-11+C$, incorrect ) Correct answer:$\displaystyle \qquad x^{3}-\frac{11x^{2}}{2}+C$
