integral of x^{-1}e^{-x}

\int x^{- 1} e^{- x} d x

Ei (- x) + C

Solution steps

\int x^{- 1} e^{- x} d x

Simplify

x^{- 1} e^{- x} : \frac{e ^{- x}}{x}

= \int \frac{e ^{- x}}{x} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{e ^{u}}{u} d u

= \int \frac{e ^{u}}{u} d u

Use the nonelementary integral:

\int \frac{e ^{x}}{x} d x = Ei (x)

= Ei (u)

Substitute back

u = - x

= Ei (- x)

Add a constant to the solution

= Ei (- x) + C

\int \frac{- 4 x + 1}{4 x ^{2} - 2 x + 5} d x

\int (\frac{3}{x ^{4}} - \frac{2}{x ^{2}} + 1) d x

\int \frac{2 y}{y ^{2} - 25} d y

\int (2 x^{3} - 1)^{7} x^{2} d x

\int \frac{2}{1 + 3 u} d u
