Solve the following definite integral: f(x)=3e^(2x+1) for the limits a=0 and b=1, leaving your answer in exact form.

First set up integral. Do not forget dx!

Int(f(x)) between 0 and 1

Optionally take out factor of 3 to simplify problem.

Solve using substitution and the exponential rule.

Integrated function should be (3/2)e^(2x+1).

Between limits this gives (3/2)*(e^(3)-e^(1)).
