I'll get you started. Suppose
F(x) = ∫f(x) dx

∫(x-a)f(x) dx = ∫xf(x) dx - ∫af(x) dx = ∫xf(x) dx - aF(x)
Now, using integration by parts, let
u = x, du = dx
dv = f(x) dx, v = F(x)
∫xf(x) dx = xF(x) - ∫F(x) dx

∫[x,b] f(t) dt = F(b)-F(x)

see what you can do from here.

What is the function of f(b)?
Answered by Steve
doesn't matter. Just expand the expressions, and there will be lots of F(x). F(b), F(a)'s floating around. It will be the same on both sides of the equation
