Answer

$$f(x)=\frac{4}{15}x^{5/2}+c_1x+c_2$$

Work Step by Step

Given $$f''(x)= \sqrt{x}$$ integrate both sides \begin{align*} f'(x)&=\int x^{1/2}dx\\ &=\frac{2}{3}x^{3/2}+c_1 \end{align*} To find $f(x) $ \begin{align*} f(x)&=\int f'(x)dx\\ &=\int \left(\frac{2}{3}x^{3/2}+c_1\right)dx\\ &=\frac{4}{15}x^{5/2}+c_1x+c_2 \end{align*}
