Question

If y = ∫ f(x) dx + C, then ∫ f(x) dx is called the -----.
Options
A Definite integral
B finite integral
C indefinite integral
Correct Answer
D integrand
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The expression ∫ f(x) dx represents the family of all antiderivatives of f(x). When it includes the constant of integration 'C', it is by definition the indefinite integral of f(x). A definite integral has specific limits of integration (e.g., from a to b) and evaluates to a numerical value. 'Integrand' refers to the function f(x) that is being integrated.

Hint

Recall the fundamental definitions of integration and its terminology.
