Q. \[\int e^{x}\,dx\]
Answer
To integrate \(e^x\), use the fact that the derivative of \(e^x\) is \(e^x\). So the antiderivative is the same function.
\[
\int e^x\,dx = e^x + C
\]
Detailed Explanation
We want to compute the indefinite integral
\[
\int e^x \, dx
\]
Step 1: Recall a key derivative fact.
Differentiate \(e^x\):
\[
\frac{d}{dx}\left(e^x\right) = e^x
\]
This tells us that \(e^x\) is the derivative of \(e^x\).
Step 2: Use the inverse relationship between differentiation and integration.
If \(\frac{d}{dx}(e^x) = e^x\), then integrating \(e^x\) must return \(e^x\) (up to a constant).
Step 3: Add the constant of integration.
Because indefinite integrals always include a constant \(C\), the result is:
\[
\int e^x \, dx = e^x + C
\]
Final Answer:
\[
\int e^x \, dx = e^x + C
\]
