$\int e^{2 x} d x$

Step 1

This integral could not be completed using integration by parts. Mathway will use another method.

Step 2

Let $u = 2 x$ . Then $d u = 2 d x$ , so $\frac{1}{2} d u = d x$ . Rewrite using $u$ and $d$ $u$ .

Step 2.1.1

Differentiate $2 x$ .

$\frac{d}{d x} [2 x]$

Step 2.1.2

Since $2$ is constant with respect to $x$ , the derivative of $2 x$ with respect to $x$ is $2 \frac{d}{d x} [x]$ .

$2 \frac{d}{d x} [x]$

Step 2.1.3

Differentiate using the Power Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [x^{n}]$ is $n x^{n - 1}$ where $n = 1$ .

$2 \cdot 1$

Step 2.1.4

Multiply $2$ by $1$ .

$2$

Step 2.2

Rewrite the problem using $u$ and $d u$ .

$\int e^{u} \frac{1}{2} d u$

Step 3

Combine $e^{u}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$ .

$\int \frac{e^{u}}{2} d u$

Step 4

Since $\frac{1}{2}$ is constant with respect to $u$ , move $\frac{1}{2}$ out of the integral.

$\frac{1}{2} \int e^{u} d u$

Step 5

The integral of $e^{u}$ with respect to $u$ is $e^{u}$ .

$\frac{1}{2} (e^{u} + C)$

Step 6

Simplify.

$\frac{1}{2} e^{u} + C$

Step 7

Replace all occurrences of $u$ with $2 x$ .

$\frac{1}{2} e^{2 x} + C$
