Question
Evaluate the following definite integrals:
$\int_{0}^\limits{\infty}\text{e}^{-\text{x}}\text{ dx}$

Answer

We have
$\int_{0}^\limits{\infty}\text{e}^{-\text{x}}\text{ dx}$
We know that $\int\text{e}^{-\text{x}}=-\text{e}^{-\text{x}}$
$\int_{0}^\limits{\infty}\text{e}^{-\text{x}}\text{ dx}$
$=\big[-\text{e}^{-\text{x}}\big]^{\infty}_0$
$=\big[\text{e}^{-\infty}+\text{e}^{-0}\big]$ $[\because\text{e}^{\infty}=0,\text{ e}^0=1\big]$
$=[-0+1]$
$=1$
