Answer

\(\boxed{\int x^{13} e^{x^{14}} dx = \frac{1}{14}e^{x^{14}} + C}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Identify the integral is in the form of \(\int f'(x) e^{f(x)} dx\), where \(f(x) = x^{14}\) and \(f'(x) = 14x^{13}\).

Step 2 :Use the formula \(\int f'(x) e^{f(x)} dx = e^{f(x)} + C\) to solve this integral.

Step 3 :However, we need to adjust the coefficient of \(f'(x)\) to match the integral. The coefficient of \(x^{13}\) in the integral is 1, but the coefficient of \(x^{13}\) in \(f'(x)\) is 14.

Step 4 :Therefore, we need to divide the result by 14.

Step 5 :\(\int x^{13} e^{x^{14}} dx = \frac{1}{14}e^{x^{14}}\)

Step 6 :Add the constant of integration, C, to the result.

Step 7 :\(\boxed{\int x^{13} e^{x^{14}} dx = \frac{1}{14}e^{x^{14}} + C}\)
