Integrate both sides with respect to <em>t</em> :
∫ d<em>y</em>/d<em>t</em> d<em>t</em> = ∫ -12<em>t</em> ² d<em>t</em>
<em>y(t)</em> = -4<em>t</em> ³ + <em>C</em>
Use the initial condition to solve for <em>C</em> :
5 = -4•0³+ <em>C</em>
<em>C</em> = 5
So
<em>y(t)</em> = -4<em>t</em> ³ + 5
and the answer is D.
Alternatively, you can directly apply the fundamental theorem of calculus:
