integral from 0 to 1 of e^{-t}

\int_{0}^{1} e^{- t} d t

1 - \frac{1}{e}

Decimal Notation

0.63212 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{1} e^{- t} d t

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{0}^{- 1} - e^{u} d u

= \int_{0}^{- 1} - e^{u} d u

\int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x = - \int_{b}^{a} f (x) d x, a < b

= - \int_{- 1}^{0} - e^{u} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= - (- \int_{- 1}^{0} e^{u} d u)

Use the common integral:

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

= - (- [e^{u}]_{- 1}^{0})

Simplify

= [e^{u}]_{- 1}^{0}

Compute the boundaries:

1 - \frac{1}{e}

= 1 - \frac{1}{e}

\int_{0}^{1} x cos (x^{3}) d x

\int_{1}^{x} \frac{1}{x ^{2}} d x

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} sin (2 θ) d θ

\int_{1}^{e^{32}} x^{- 1} d x

\int_{0}^{1} (x^{2} - 1) d x
