Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Integrating a function basically means you are taking the inverse of finding a derivative of the function. Integration is used to find the area under a curve or multiple curves, or even volume.

For instance,
\int\limits^ {}2x \, dx=x^2+C because the derivative of
x^2 is
2x.
