Class 12 Maths · Integrals · Conceptual Answer #128

If ∫(ax+b)²dx=f(x)+C, give one possible f(x), valid also at a=0.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(\frac{a^{2} x^{3}}{3} + a b x^{2} + b^{2} x\) + C
  1. Expand (ax+b)²=a²x²+2abx+b², then integrate each term. This works also when a=0; an arbitrary additive constant may be absorbed into C.
  2. Therefore the required integral is \(\frac{a^{2} x^{3}}{3} + a b x^{2} + b^{2} x\) + C.
