The integral $\int\frac{e^{-x}}{9+4e^{-2x}}dx$ is equal to
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
$I=\int\frac{e^{-x}}{9+4e^{-2x}}dx$
let $y=e^{-x}$
$dy=-e^{-x}dx⇒-dy=e^{-x}dx$
$I=-\int\frac{dy}{9+4y^2}⇒I=\frac{-1}{4}\int\frac{dy}{(3/2)^2+y^2}$
$⇒I=\frac{-1}{4}×\frac{2}{3}\tan^{-1}\frac{2y}{3}+C$
$⇒I=-\frac{1}{6}\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{2e^{-x}}{3}\right)+C$
