Exponential Rule of Integration


Exponential Functions
Exponential Functions
Test: Take the derivative
of the choice of u. If you
cannot find it elsewhere in
the integrand, then use a
different expression for u.

Testing Zone:

This expression is off only by a constant multiple.


Exponential Functions
Conclusion

 Integration by substitution is a technique for find-


ing the antiderivative of a composite function.

 Experiment with different choices for u when us-


ing integration by substitution.

 A good choice is one whose derivative is ex-


pressed elsewhere in the integrand.
