Problem



Let $f(x)$ be a continuous function, and
$$int_0^x f(x-t){rm d}t=e^{-2x}(x+1)-1.$$
Find $int_0^1 f(x){rm d}x$ and $f(x).$



Solution



Differentiate the both sides of the assumption equality with respect to $x$. For
the left hand side, we make a substitution $x-t=:u$ and obtain
begin{align*}
frac{{rm d}}{{rm d}x}int_0^xf(x-t){rm d}t&=frac{{rm d}}{{rm d}(u+t)}int_x^0f(u){rm d}(x-u)\
&=frac{{rm d}}{{rm d}u}int_0^xf(u){rm d}u\
&=f(x).
end{align*}



As for the right hand side, we may directly obtain
$$frac{{rm d}}{{rm d}x}[e^{-2x}(x+1)-1]=-e^{-2x}(2x+1).$$



Thus
$$f(x)=-e^{-2x}(2x+1),$$
$$int_0^1f(x){rm d}x=[e^{-2x}(x+1)]_0^1=frac{2}{e^2}-1.$$

    Could you elaborate on this equality? I'm having trouble seeing where it comes from myself. $$frac{{rm d}}{{rm d}(u+t)}int_x^0f(u){rm d}(x-u)=frac{{rm d}}{{rm d}u}int_0^xf(u){rm d}(u)$$

    Anyhow, everything seems correct to me, but I'd wait for confirmation from someone else just in case owing to my own slight confusion earlier (i.e. I might not be the best person to evaluate your answer, even if I agree).
