integral from-2 to-1 of e^{-x}

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

e^{2} - e

Decimal Notation

4.67077 \dots

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

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

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

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

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Use the common integral:

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

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

Simplify

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

Compute the boundaries:

e^{2} - e

= e^{2} - e

\int_{0}^{π} sin (3 x) cos (7 x) d x

\int_{2}^{4} \frac{1}{e ^{0.5 x}} d x

\int_{3}^{4} \frac{x + 4}{x ^{2} ( x - 2 )} d x

\int_{- 2}^{4} x^{2} - 2 x - 3 d x

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{8}} tan (4 x) d x
