If you know the formula of #f'(x)#, then you can find the formula #f(x)# except for its constant term by taking an antiderivative

#f(x)=\int f'(x)dx#.

If you have an additional information about #f(x)# such as a point on the graph of #f#, then you will be able to find its constant term as well.

I hope that this was helpful.
