integral of 2/(1+e^{-x)}

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

2 (ln 1 + e^{- x} + x) + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{1 + e ^{- x}} d x

\frac{1}{1 + e ^{- x}} = - \frac{e ^{- x}}{1 + e ^{- x}} + 1

= 2 \cdot \int - \frac{e ^{- x}}{1 + e ^{- x}} + 1 d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= 2 (- \int \frac{e ^{- x}}{1 + e ^{- x}} d x + \int 1 d x)

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

\int 1 d x = x

= 2 (- (- ln 1 + e^{- x}) + x)

Simplify

= 2 (ln 1 + e^{- x} + x)

Add a constant to the solution

= 2 (ln 1 + e^{- x} + x) + C

\int (3 x + 5)^{7} d x

\int (4 x - 1) (12 x^{2} - 6 x + 1)^{\frac{1}{3}} d x

\int e^{x} 3^{x} d x

\int \frac{1}{1 - e ^{- 2 x}} d x

\int sec (t) (7 sec (t) + 9 tan (t)) d t
