$$\int\limits_{-3}^{2} \left(5 x - 8\right)\, dx$$

Integral(5*x - 8, (x, -3, 2))

Detail solution

Integrate term-by-term:
1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
  
  $\int 5 x\, dx = 5 \int x\, dx$
  1. The integral of $x^{n}$ is $\frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1}$ when $n \neq -1$ :
    
    $\int x\, dx = \frac{x^{2}}{2}$
  So, the result is: $\frac{5 x^{2}}{2}$
1. The integral of a constant is the constant times the variable of integration:
  
  $\int \left(-8\right)\, dx = - 8 x$
The result is: $\frac{5 x^{2}}{2} - 8 x$
Now simplify:

$\frac{x \left(5 x - 16\right)}{2}$
Add the constant of integration:

$\frac{x \left(5 x - 16\right)}{2}+ \mathrm{constant}$

The answer is:

$\frac{x \left(5 x - 16\right)}{2}+ \mathrm{constant}$
