integral from 1 to 2 of (e^{2/x})/(x^2)

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

\frac{e ^{2} - e}{2}

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{2}^{1} - \frac{e ^{u}}{2} d u

= \int_{2}^{1} - \frac{e ^{u}}{2} d u

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

= - \int_{1}^{2} - \frac{e ^{u}}{2} d u

Take the constant out:

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

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

Use the common integral:

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

= - (- \frac{1}{2} [e^{u}]_{1}^{2})

Simplify

= \frac{1}{2} [e^{u}]_{1}^{2}

Compute the boundaries:

e^{2} - e

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

Simplify

= \frac{e ^{2} - e}{2}

\int_{9}^{27} 1

\int_{- 4}^{4} (5 - ∣ x ∣) d x

\int_{0}^{t} 1000 x + 250 d x

\int_{- 2}^{2} (x^{2} + x) d x

\int_{- 1}^{2} (x^{2} + x - 4) d x
