Definite Integration

Question:

$\int\limits_0^∞[2 e^{-x}]dx$, where [.] denotes the greatest integer function, is equal to

Options:

0

ln 2

e2

2e-1

Correct Answer:

ln 2

Explanation:

Since 0 < 2e-x ≤ 2 ∀x ∈ [0 , ∞),

[2e-x] = 0, for x > ln 2.

Hence the given integral = $\int\limits_0^{In\,2}dx+0=In\,2$.

Hence (B) is the correct answer.
