Integration of a factored quadratic:

We don't have a rule for a product like this, so let's simplify the expression by completing the multiplication:

We can use the Sum rule for integrals to get

Now we can use the Scalar Multiple rule for integrals to get

Now we can use the Power rule for integrals:
