Question
Recall that the constant term, C, cancels out when evaluating a definite integral and therefore, the C is traditionally omitted in the calculations.

Evaluate the definite integral.

\[
\int_{1/5}^{1} \frac{50}{x^3} \, dx = \left. -25x^{-2} \right|_{1/5}^{1}
\]

\[
= F\left(\underline{\,\,\,50x^3 \,\,\,}\right) - F\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)
\]

The first part of the evaluation has an error, indicated by a red cross.

\[
= \underline{\,\,\,600\,\,\,}
\]

The boxed number "600" is marked with a green check, suggesting it is correct.

This example demonstrates calculating a definite integral, emphasizing where mistakes may occur, and confirming correct answers.
