integral from x to 0 of e^{-2t}

\int_{x}^{0} e^{- 2 t} d t

- \frac{1}{2} (1 - e^{- 2 x})

Solution steps

\int_{x}^{0} e^{- 2 t} d t

Apply u-substitution

= \int_{- 2 x}^{0} - \frac{1}{2} e^{u} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= - \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{- 2 x}^{0} e^{u} d u

Use the common integral:

\int e^{u} d u = e^{u}

= - \frac{1}{2} [e^{u}]_{- 2 x}^{0}

Compute the boundaries:

1 - e^{- 2 x}

= - \frac{1}{2} (1 - e^{- 2 x})
