Solution

Let $$$u=5 x$$$.

Then $$$du=\left(5 x\right)^{\prime }dx = 5 dx$$$ (steps can be seen »), and we have that $$$dx = \frac{du}{5}$$$.

The integral becomes

$${\color{red}{\int{e^{5 x} d x}}} = {\color{red}{\int{\frac{e^{u}}{5} d u}}}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(u \right)}\, du = c \int f{\left(u \right)}\, du$$$ with $$$c=\frac{1}{5}$$$ and $$$f{\left(u \right)} = e^{u}$$$:

$${\color{red}{\int{\frac{e^{u}}{5} d u}}} = {\color{red}{\left(\frac{\int{e^{u} d u}}{5}\right)}}$$

The integral of the exponential function is $$$\int{e^{u} d u} = e^{u}$$$:

$$\frac{{\color{red}{\int{e^{u} d u}}}}{5} = \frac{{\color{red}{e^{u}}}}{5}$$

Recall that $$$u=5 x$$$:

$$\frac{e^{{\color{red}{u}}}}{5} = \frac{e^{{\color{red}{\left(5 x\right)}}}}{5}$$

Therefore,

$$\int{e^{5 x} d x} = \frac{e^{5 x}}{5}$$

Add the constant of integration:

$$\int{e^{5 x} d x} = \frac{e^{5 x}}{5}+C$$

Answer: $$$\int{e^{5 x} d x}=\frac{e^{5 x}}{5}+C$$$
