This is the classic ∫ex[f(x)+f′(x)] dx=exf(x)+C\int e^x[f(x)+f'(x)]\,dx=e^xf(x)+C pattern — spot ff and f′f' in the integrand.

Take f(x)=1xf(x)=\dfrac1x. Then f′(x)=−1x2f'(x)=-\dfrac{1}{x^2}.

The integrand is exactly ex(1x−1x2)=ex(f(x)+f′(x))e^x\left(\dfrac1x-\dfrac1{x^2}\right)=e^x\big(f(x)+f'(x)\big).

By the standard identity (which follows directly from the product rule applied to exf(x)e^xf(x)): …
