The way to disprove an antiderivative is to simply differentiate the function and see if it matches the integral expression. Remember that an antiderivative expression must include a term often coined "C-" an arbitrary constant. For example, ∫(x^3 +14x)dx= (1/4)X^4+ 7X^2 +C. To verify that this is correct, take the derivative. You get x^3 +14x.

What is the antiderivative of zero?
The antiderivative of a function which is equal to 0 everywhere is a function equal to 0 everywhere.
What is the fundamental theory of calculus?
The fundamental theorum of calculus states that a definite integral from a to b is equivalent to the antiderivative's expression of b minus the antiderivative expression of a.
What is the antiderivative of e to the -x?
-e-x + C.
How can you calculate the arbitrary constant in the solution to an antiderivative?
You can't, unless it's an initial value problem. If f(x) is an antiderivative to g(x), then so is f(x) + c, for any c at all.
What is the anti derivative of the square root of 1-x2?
-1
