## Question:

Convergent or Divergent? If it's convergent, evaluate the integral.

{eq}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} (y^3-3y^2)dy {/eq}

## Evaluating Definite Integrals:

When we get the integral that is diverging then we don't get the finite value of that integral. So we first find the indefinite integrals and then put the limits of integration, so as to get the final value. In the process we apply the power rue, and many other integration method to get the integral.
