Question

The value of the integral \( I = \int_{-3}^3 (x^3 - x) dx \) is

• A. 0
• B. 3/2
• C. 1/2
• D. x

Hint:

Always check for odd/even symmetry when integrating over symmetric intervals \([-a, a]\). This often simplifies the problem significantly. The integral of an odd function over a symmetric interval is always zero.
