10.3.2  Expanding exponentials

The exponential function applied to a sum can be converted into a product of exponentials; namely,

  ex+y=exey.

The expexpand command does this conversion. For expansions in other bases, see Section 10.3.6.

Example

expexpand(exp(3*x)+exp(2*x+2))
     
⎛
⎝
ex⎞
⎠
3+⎛
⎝
ex⎞
⎠
2 e2
