Integral of x dx with Steps

Find the integral of x dx step by step. Applies the power rule for integration with n = 1 to get x²/2 + C.

Problem Statement
∫x dx\int x \, dx
Final Result
F(x)=x22+CF(x) = \frac{x^{2}}{2} + C

Formula Required: Power Rule for Integration

Add 1 to the exponent and divide by the new exponent.

∫xn dx=xn+1n+1+C(n≠−1)\int x^n \, dx = \frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1} + C \quad (n \neq -1)
