What is the antiderivative of the function (x-3)*e^x?

We'll integrate by parts. For this reason, we'll consider the
formula:


Int udv = u*v - Int vdu
(*)


We'll put u = x - 3 (1)


We'll
differentiate both sides:


du = dx
(2)


We'll put dv = e^x (3)


We'll
integrate both sides:


Int dv = Int e^x
dx


v = e^x (4)


We'll substitute (1) ,
(2) , (3) and (4) in (*):


Int udv = (x-3)*e^x - Int
(e^x)dx


Int (x-3)*e^x dx = (x-3)*e^x - e^x +
C


Int (x-3)*(e^x)dx = (e^x)*(x-3-1) +
C


The antiderivative of the given function is: Int
(x-3)*(e^x)dx = (e^x)*(x-4) + C
