Answer

$$ - 5{e^{ - x}} + C$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & \int {5{e^{ - x}}} dx \cr & {\text{use multiple constant rule }}\int {k \cdot f\left( x \right)} dx = k\int {f\left( x \right)} dx \cr & = 5\int {{e^{ - x}}} dx \cr & {\text{use the indefinite integral of an exponential function formula }}\int {{e^{kx}}} dx = \frac{{{e^{kx}}}}{k} + C \cr & = 5\left( {\frac{{{e^{ - x}}}}{{ - 1}}} \right) + C \cr & {\text{simplifying}} \cr & = - 5{e^{ - x}} + C \cr} $$
