Transcript text: Determine the following.
\[
\begin{array}{r}
\int 3 e^{-2 x} d x \\
\int 3 e^{-2 x} d x=\square
\end{array}
\]
Solution
Solution Steps
To solve the integral \(\int 3 e^{-2 x} \, dx\), we can use the method of integration by substitution. We will let \(u = -2x\), then \(du = -2dx\). This substitution will simplify the integral, allowing us to integrate with respect to \(u\).
Step 1: Set Up the Integral
We start with the integral we want to solve:
\[
\int 3 e^{-2x} \, dx
\]
Step 2: Perform the Integration
Using integration techniques, we find that:
\[
\int 3 e^{-2x} \, dx = -\frac{3}{2} e^{-2x} + C
\]
where \(C\) is the constant of integration.
Final Answer
The result of the integral is:
\[
\boxed{-\frac{3}{2} e^{-2x} + C}
\]
