We know that:

To find \( F(x) \), we need to integrate \( F'(x) \):

2. **Perform the integration**:
The integral can be split into two separate integrals:

Okay, so I need to find the function F(x) whose graph passes through the point M₀(3, -2), and we know that the derivative F'(x) is 4x² + 9x⁻². Hmm, let's start by recalling that to find F(x), we need to integrate F'(x) with respect to x. Then, we can use the point M₀ to determine the constant of integration. Let me break this down step by step.
First, let's write down the derivative again to make sure I have it right: F'(x) = 4x² + 9x⁻². So, integrating this should give me F(x) plus a constant. The integral of F'(x) is F(x) + C, where C is the constant. But since we have a specific point that the graph passes through, once we integrate, we can plug in x = 3 and set F(3) = -2 to solve for C.
