$e^{(nx)}$

Unit 6: Antiderivatives e ( nx )

Base Case: $e^{(nx)}$

Base Case

Definite Integral

Indefinite Integral

$f' (x) = e^{(n x)}$

Where the n is any number .

$\int_{a}^{b} e^{(n x)} dx = {{\frac{1}{n} e}^{(n x)} |}_{x = a}^{x = b}$

$\int e^{(n x)} dx = {\frac{1}{n} e}^{(n x)} + C$

Note : As soon as whatever is inside the function, inside the parenthesis, is more than just your basic x , the problem’s primary method becomes a u-substitution .

I include the n in my base case because it is one of the most common ways you will see this special case presented, and by memorizing it this way you can save yourself an unnecessary u-substitution .
