Answer

Thus, the value of the integral \(\int_{1}^{3} 5 e^{x+4} d x\) is \(\boxed{4741.09999662941}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The given integral is \(\int_{1}^{3} e^{x} d x = e^{3}-e\). We need to evaluate \(\int_{1}^{3} 5 e^{x+4} d x\).

Step 2 :We can rewrite the integral \(\int_{1}^{3} 5 e^{x+4} d x\) as \(\int_{1}^{3} 5 e^{x} e^{4} d x\), which simplifies to \(5e^{4}\int_{1}^{3} e^{x} d x\).

Step 3 :Substituting the given integral \(\int_{1}^{3} e^{x} d x = e^{3}-e\) into the equation, we get the final answer.

Step 4 :Thus, the value of the integral \(\int_{1}^{3} 5 e^{x+4} d x\) is \(\boxed{4741.09999662941}\).
