How can I find $h(y)$?

Given the following function
$$ f(t) = begin{cases}
t &text{for }tleq2,,\
2 &text{for } tgeq 2,,\
end{cases}
$$

and $$h'(y)=f(y),,$$
how can I find $h(y)$ ?

    Do it case by case: $int t mathrm dt=frac12 t^2+c$ for $tle 2$ and $int 2 mathrm dt=2t+c$ for $t ge 2$

An antiderivative is not unique. So $c=h(0)$ gives
$$h(y)-h(0)=int_0^yf(t)dt=int_0^ytdt =y^2/2$$
for $yle 2$, so
$$h(y)=y^2/2+c$$
when $yle 2$. But if $y>2$,
$$h(y)-h(2)=int_2^yf(t)dt=int_2^y2dt=2(y-2).$$
Id est,
$$h(y)=h(2)+2t-4=(2^2/2+c)+2y-4=2y-2+c$$
when $y>2$. (You should check btw that $h$ is differentiable, and it is.)

    An antiderivative is not unique. So $c=h(0)$ gives
    $$h(y)-h(0)=int_0^yf(t)dt=int_0^ytdt =y^2/2$$
    for $yle 2$, so
    $$h(y)=y^2/2+c$$
    when $yle 2$. But if $y>2$,
    $$h(y)-h(2)=int_2^yf(t)dt=int_2^y2dt=2(y-2).$$
    Id est,
    $$h(y)=h(2)+2t-4=(2^2/2+c)+2y-4=2y-2+c$$
    when $y>2$. (You should check btw that $h$ is differentiable, and it is.)
