Where $x$ is the time in months. Calculate the family of total sales functions $F(x)$ by finding the antiderivative of this function. (Note: Perform polynomial division first).

Calculate the antiderivative of the function $f(x) = \dfrac{x^4 + x^3 - 2}{x^3 - x^2}$ that passes through the point $P(2, 5)$.

A team of engineers is monitoring the flow of coolant in a thermal power plant. The rate of change of the volume of liquid with respect to time $t$ is given by the function $v(t) = \dfrac{4t + 10}{t^2 + 4t + 13}$. Find the expression for the total volume $V(t)$ knowing that at the initial instant ($t=0$) the tank contained $100$ liters.

Note: Observe that the denominator has no real roots, so the solution will combine a natural logarithm and an arctangent.

Determine the indefinite integral of the function $g(x) = \dfrac{1}{x^4 - 1}$. To solve this exercise, you must fully factorise the denominator over the real numbers and decompose the fraction into a sum containing terms with simple real roots and a term with complex roots yielding an arctangent form.

Find the total charge function $F(t)$, knowing that at the initial moment ($t = 0$) the drone's charge was $2500$ mAh.

Calculate the indefinite integral $\displaystyle \int \frac{3x^2 + 1}{x^3 + x^2 + x + 1} \, dx$.

To do this, note that the denominator can be factorised using Ruffini's rule or by grouping terms, resulting in the product of a linear factor and an irreducible quadratic factor.

Solve the following integral using the integration by parts method:

$\displaystyle \int (x + 2) \times \cos(x) dx$

Find the antiderivative of the natural logarithm function using the integration by parts method, taking $u = \ln(x)$ and $dv = dx$:

$\displaystyle \int \ln(x) dx$

An electronics components company estimates that its marginal cost (the cost of producing an additional unit) follows the function $C'(x) = x \times \ln(x)$, where $x$ is the number of thousands of units produced.

Determine the total cost function $C(x)$ knowing that the fixed costs (cost when $x = 1$, in this simplified model) are $10$ thousand pesos.

Find the antiderivative of the function $g(x) = x^2 \times \cos(x)$ that passes through the origin. You will need to apply the integration by parts method twice in succession.

Find the indefinite integral $\int e^{2x} \times \sin(x) \, dx$.

This type of integral is called "cyclic". Apply the method of integration by parts until the original integral appears again and solve for its value.

In the study of alternating current electrical circuits, the current intensity $i(t)$ in amperes is usually modelled using functions combining exponential and trigonometric functions. Suppose the rate of change of the charge on a capacitor is given by the function:

Find the set of all antiderivatives $F(t)$ associated with this current using the method of integration by parts. Keep in mind that this type of integral is solved using the "iteration" or "cyclic" method.

An object moves along a straight line with a time-dependent acceleration defined by $a(t) = \ln(t+1)$. If at the initial moment ($t=0$) the object was at rest and at the position $s=10$ meters, determine the position equation $s(t)$ at any moment $t$.

Note: Remember that velocity is the integral of acceleration and position is the integral of velocity. Both integrals require the use of the integration by parts method.

Find the analytical expression of a function $f(x)$ such that its second derivative is $f''(x) = x \times \operatorname{sen}(x)$, knowing that the tangent line to the curve at the origin is the x-axis itself.

Find the function $f(x)$ that satisfies the condition of being continuous across the entire domain of definition of its branches, knowing that its derivative is given by:
