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:

\[
\int e^x \, dx = e^x + C
\]

Calculus FAQ

What is the indefinite integral of \(e^x\) ?

\(\int e^x\,dx = e^x + C\).

What is the definite integral \(\int_0^1 e^x\,dx\) ?

\(\int_0^1 e^x\,dx = \left[e^x\right]_0^1 = e - 1\).

How to integrate \(e^{x+3}\) ?

\(\int e^{x+3}\,dx = e^{x+3} + C\). Because \(\frac{d}{dx}(x+3)=1\).

How to integrate \(e^{2x}\) ?

\(\int e^{2x}\,dx = \frac{1}{2}e^{2x} + C\), since \(\frac{d}{dx}(2x)=2\).

How to integrate \(e^{kx}\) for constant \(k\neq 0\) ?

\(\int e^{kx}\,dx = \frac{1}{k}e^{kx} + C\).

What is \(\int e^x\,d x\) using substitution?

Let \(u=x\). Then \(\int e^x\,dx = \int e^u\,du = e^u + C = e^x + C\).

How to check the integral answer by differentiation?

Differentiate: \(\frac{d}{dx}\left(e^x + C\right)=e^x\), matching the integrand.
