Transcript

The problem. Here is the problem: integral of e to the power 3x. Find the indefinite integral (antiderivative) of e to the power 3x with respect to x.

Step by step. Start with the integral. Exponential rule: the integral of eᵘ du equals eᵘ (divide by the inner slope). Simplify and add the constant of integration.

The answer. So the answer is e to the power 3x / 3 plus C. An antiderivative F satisfies F prime of x equals f(x). Because the derivative of any constant is 0, every antiderivative differs by a constant C.

Check. Differentiated the answer and compared it with the integrand at 8 sample points, which checks out.
