Answer

$\int\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x}+1}dx=ln(e^{x}+1)+constant$

Work Step by Step

Evaluate $\int\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x}+1}dx$ Consider $e^{x}+1=t$ and $e^{x}dx=dt$ Thus, $\int\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x}+1}dx=\int \frac{dt}{t}$ $=ln|t|+constant$ $=ln(t)+constant$ Hence, $\int\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x}+1}dx=ln(e^{x}+1)+constant$
