$\int 2 e^{x + 5} d x$

Step 1

Since $2$ is constant with respect to $x$ , move $2$ out of the integral.

$2 \int e^{x + 5} d x$

Step 2

Let $u = x + 5$ . Then $d u = d x$ . Rewrite using $u$ and $d$ $u$ .

Step 2.1.1

Differentiate $x + 5$ .

$\frac{d}{d x} [x + 5]$

Step 2.1.2

By the Sum Rule, the derivative of $x + 5$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{d}{d x} [x] + \frac{d}{d x} [5]$ .

$\frac{d}{d x} [x] + \frac{d}{d x} [5]$

Step 2.1.3

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

$1 + \frac{d}{d x} [5]$

Step 2.1.4

Since $5$ is constant with respect to $x$ , the derivative of $5$ with respect to $x$ is $0$ .

$1 + 0$

Step 2.1.5

Add $1$ and $0$ .

$1$

Step 2.2

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

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

Step 3

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

$2 (e^{u} + C)$

Step 4

Simplify.

$2 e^{u} + C$

Step 5

Replace all occurrences of $u$ with $x + 5$ .

$2 e^{x + 5} + C$
