00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.750
Here is the problem: integral of e to the power 3x.

2
00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:10.446
Find the indefinite integral (antiderivative) of e to the power 3x with respect to x.

3
00:00:11.246 --> 00:00:12.697
Start with the integral.

4
00:00:13.147 --> 00:00:21.402
Exponential rule: the integral of eᵘ du equals eᵘ (divide by the inner slope).

5
00:00:21.852 --> 00:00:24.882
Simplify and add the constant of integration.

6
00:00:25.682 --> 00:00:30.082
So the answer is e to the power 3x / 3 plus C.

7
00:00:30.532 --> 00:00:41.329
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.

8
00:00:42.129 --> 00:00:48.120
Differentiated the answer and compared it with the integrand at 8 sample points, which checks out.
