integral of e^{-10x^2}

\int e^{- 10 x^{2}} d x

\frac{π}{2 10} erf (10 x) + C

Solution steps

\int e^{- 10 x^{2}} d x

= \int e^{- (10 x)^{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int e^{- u^{2}} \frac{1}{10} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{10} \cdot \int e^{- u^{2}} d u

Use the nonelementary integral:

\int e^{- u^{2}} d u = \frac{π}{2} erf (u)

= \frac{1}{10} \cdot \frac{π}{2} erf (u)

Substitute back

u = 10 x

= \frac{1}{10} \cdot \frac{π}{2} erf (10 x)

Simplify

\frac{1}{10} \cdot \frac{π}{2} erf (10 x) : \frac{π}{2 10} erf (10 x)

= \frac{π}{2 10} erf (10 x)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{π}{2 10} erf (10 x) + C
