![### Understanding Antiderivatives: A Worksheet
**Problem Statement:**
Consider the function \( f(x) = 8x^3 - 6x^2 + 3x - 8 \).
An antiderivative of \( f(x) \) is \( F(x) = Ax^4 + Bx^3 + Cx^2 + Dx \).
**Tasks:**
1. **Identify the Constants:**
Determine the values of the coefficients \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \) in the antiderivative \( F(x) \).
- **Where \( A \) is:**
\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \]
- **And \( B \) is:**
\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \]
- **And \( C \) is:**
\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \]
- **And \( D \) is:**
\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \]
---
### Explanation:
**Function and Antiderivative Relationship:**
To find the antiderivative \( F(x) \) of the function \( f(x) \), we need to integrate \( f(x) \):
\[ f(x) = 8x^3 - 6x^2 + 3x - 8 \]
Integrate term by term:
1. The integral of \( 8x^3 \):
\[ \int 8x^3 \, dx = 2x^4 \]
2. The integral of \( 6x^2 \):
\[ \int 6x^2 \, dx = 2x^3 \]
3. The integral of \( 3x \):
\[ \int 3x \, dx = x^2 \]
4. The integral of \( -8 \):
\[ \int -8 \, dx = -8x \]
Combine these integrals:
\[ F(x) = 2x^4 - 2x^3 + x^2 - 8x + C \]
**Values of \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \):**
- \( A = 2 \)
- \( B = -2 \)
- \( C = 1 \)
- \( D =](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F621ac9f8-2dbb-4715-ab7b-42c3ebc90b44%2F20f1e57d-415e-41ed-9e7b-a3cc3f0444d0%2Fmks46go_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
