Question #3dc90 Calculus Introduction to Integration Definite and indefinite integrals 1 Answer Eddie Mar 17, 2017 # = -(1)/(2y^2) + C# Explanation: Use the power rule: #int \ y^n \ dy = (y^(n+1))/(n+1) + C# Here you have: #int \ 1/y ^3 \ dy = int \ y ^ (-3) \ dy = (y^(-3+1))/(-3+1) + C# # = (y^(-2))/(-2) + C# # = -(1)/(2y^2) + C# Answer link Related questions What is the difference between definite and indefinite integrals?
