Detail solution
  1. Integrate term-by-term:

    1. There are multiple ways to do this integral.

      Method #1

      1. Let .

        Then let and substitute :

        1. Use integration by parts:

          Let and let .

          Then .

          To find :

          1. Let .

            Then let and substitute :

            1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

              1. The integral of the exponential function is itself.

              So, the result is:

            Now substitute back in:

          Now evaluate the sub-integral.

        2. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

          1. Let .

            Then let and substitute :

            1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

              1. The integral of the exponential function is itself.

              So, the result is:

            Now substitute back in:

          So, the result is:

        Now substitute back in:

      Method #2

      1. Use integration by parts:
