integral from 0.5 to 1 of e^{-x}

\int_{0.5}^{1} e^{- x} d x

0.60653 \dots - \frac{1}{e}

Decimal

0.23865 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0.5}^{1} e^{- x} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{- 0.5}^{- 1} - e^{u} d u

= \int_{- 0.5}^{- 1} - e^{u} d u

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

= - \int_{- 1}^{- 0.5} - e^{u} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= - (- \int_{- 1}^{- 0.5} e^{u} d u)

Use the common integral:

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

= - (- [e^{u}]_{- 1}^{- 0.5})

Simplify

= [e^{u}]_{- 1}^{- 0.5}

Compute the boundaries:

0.60653 \dots - \frac{1}{e}

= 0.60653 \dots - \frac{1}{e}

\int_{2}^{11} π (x - 2)^{2} d x

\int_{0}^{1} - 4 x 5^{x} d x

\int_{2}^{4} (x^{2} - 6 x + 8) d x

\int_{- 1}^{0} \frac{1}{x ^{5}} d x

\int_{0}^{1} x cosh (x) d x
