Answer

$$\eqalign{ & \int_0^e {\frac{{dx}}{{2x + e}}} \cr & or \cr & = \frac{1}{2}\int_0^e {\frac{{2dx}}{{2x + e}}} \cr & {\text{integrate}} \cr & \frac{1}{2}\int_0^e {\frac{{2dx}}{{2x + e}}} = \frac{1}{2}\left[ {\ln \left| {2x + e} \right|} \right]_0^e \cr & {\text{evaluate}} \cr & \frac{1}{2}\left[ {\ln \left| {2x + e} \right|} \right]_0^e = \frac{1}{2}\left[ {\ln \left| {2e + e} \right| - \ln \left| {2\left( 0 \right) + e} \right|} \right] \cr & {\text{simplify}} \cr & \frac{1}{2}\left[ {\ln \left| {2x + e} \right|} \right]_0^e = \frac{1}{2}\left[ {\ln \left| {3e} \right| - \ln \left| e \right|} \right] \cr & \frac{1}{2}\left[ {\ln \left| {2x + e} \right|} \right]_0^e = \frac{1}{2}\left[ {\ln 3 + \ln e - \ln e} \right] \cr & = \frac{1}{2}\ln 3 \cr} $$
