Problem
Let where is differentiable on an open interval containing . Write an explicit formula for in terms of .Intuitive explanation
The key is to apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus twice. First, differentiating gives you directly—that's the theorem in action. Then differentiate again: since is differentiable, is just the derivative of . The answer is simpler than you might expect once you recognize that integration and differentiation are inverse operations.
