 ## Examples
 > Find the antiderivative of the function $y = x^2$
 
-1. We know that $f'(x) = 2x^1$
+1. We know that to find the derivative of the above function, you'd multiply by the exponent ($2$), and subtract 1 from the exponent.
+2. To perform this operation in reverse:
+	1. Add 1 to the exponent
+	2. Multiply by $\dfrac{1}{n + 1}$
+3. This gives us an antiderivative of$\dfrac{1}{3}x^3$
