The Proof of The Rule
First note that from the definition of integration as the antiderivative, the reverse process of differentiation:
Adding these,
Now take the sum rule in differentiation:
Integrate both sides with respect to x:
So we have, looking at (1) and (2):
Therefore:
Now substitute:

Famous quotes containing the words proof and/or rule:
