Let G(x)G(x) be a polynomial function whose derivative is G′(x)=kx2+6xG'(x)=kx^2+6x, where kk is a constant. (i) Find the general form of G(x)G(x) in terms of kk and the constant of integration CC. (ii) Given the two conditions G(1)=5G(1)=5 and G(2)=15G(2)=15, determine the values of kk and CC. (iii) Write the complete expression for G(x)G(x) using the values of kk and CC obtained in part (ii).
