    I = ∫ [(4xe^(6x^2)] dx

    u = 6x^2

    du = 12x dx

    (1/3)du = 4x dx

    I = (1/3)∫ e^u du

    I = (1/3)e(6x^2) + C<-------answer

    Substitute 6x^2 as t.

    Your integral looks like

    ∫ 4xe^t dx

    On differentiating t=6x^2 you will get dt = 12x dx

    dx = dt / 12x

    Substitute this and your integral looks like

    ∫ 1/3 e^t dt

    The 1/3 is a constant take it out of the integral sign

    1/3 ∫ e^t dt

    You know that ∫ e^x dx = e^x + c (where c is an arbitrary constant)

    1/3 ∫ e^t dt = 1/3 e^t + c

    Re-substituting t

    1/3 e^(6x^2) + c

    Use substitution

    Let u=6x^2 so du=12xdx so dx=du/12x

    Now replace u and du.

    ∫ [(4xe^(6x^2)] dx= ∫ 4xe^u(du/12x)= ∫1/3e^udu=1/3∫e^udu=1/3e^u

    Now substitute for u

    so 1/3e^u= 1/3e^(6x^2) +C

    so 1/3e^(6x^2) +C is the answer

    pull the 4 out in front let u=6x^2 du= 12x integrate

    1/3 integral e^u du = 1/3 (e^u) = 1/3 e^(6x^2) + c

    I'm going to say u substitution,

    u=6x^2

    du=12xdx

    then you get

    1/3e^6x^2+c

    after integrating

    and wolfram alpha confirms

    solve with integration by parts

    set u=4x and dv=e^(6x^2)

    du=4dx and v=[e^(6x^2)}/(6x^2)

    and then take

    uv-∫vdu

    (something like that)

    obvious substitution.
