Solution
Solution Steps
To find the derivative of the function \( F(x) = \int_{1}^{x} 3 \, dt \), we can apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. This theorem states that if \( F(x) = \int_{a}^{x} f(t) \, dt \), then \( F'(x) = f(x) \). In this case, the integrand \( f(t) = 3 \) is a constant function. Therefore, the derivative \( F'(x) \) is simply the constant function \( f(x) = 3 \).
Step 1: Define the Function
We are given the function defined by the integral:
\[
F(x) = \int_{1}^{x} 3 \, dt
\]
Step 2: Apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
According to the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, if \( F(x) = \int_{a}^{x} f(t) \, dt \), then the derivative \( F'(x) \) is given by:
\[
F'(x) = f(x)
\]
In this case, since \( f(t) = 3 \) is a constant function, we have:
\[
F'(x) = 3
\]
Step 3: Conclusion
The derivative \( F'(x) \) exists and is equal to 3 for all \( x \) in the interval \([1, 1000]\).
