integral of-2e^{-4x}

\int - 2 e^{- 4 x} d x

\frac{1}{2} e^{- 4 x} + C

Solution steps

\int - 2 e^{- 4 x} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= - 2 \cdot \int e^{- 4 x} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int - \frac{1}{4} e^{u} d u

= - 2 \cdot \int - \frac{1}{4} e^{u} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= - 2 (- \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int e^{u} d u)

Use the common integral:

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

= - 2 (- \frac{1}{4} e^{u})

Substitute back

u = - 4 x

= - 2 (- \frac{1}{4} e^{- 4 x})

Simplify

- 2 (- \frac{1}{4} e^{- 4 x}) : \frac{1}{2} e^{- 4 x}

= \frac{1}{2} e^{- 4 x}

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} e^{- 4 x} + C

\int (y^{2} - 2 x) d x

\int cos (x) - \frac{sin ( x )}{x} d x

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

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

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