integral from 0 to infinity of e^{-ax}

\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{- a x} d x

\frac{1}{a}

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{- a x} d x

Compute the indefinite integral:

\int e^{- a x} d x = - \frac{1}{a} e^{- a x} + C

Compute the boundaries:

\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{- a x} d x = 0 - (- \frac{1}{a})

= 0 - (- \frac{1}{a})

Simplify

= \frac{1}{a}

\frac{d}{d x} (ln (2 x^{2} y))

\int (x^{2} + 4) d x

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{x - 1}{x ^{2} - 3 x + 3})

\int \frac{1}{( 100 + x ^{2} ) ^{2}} d x

\frac{d}{d x} (3 x (x^{2} - \frac{2}{x}))
