= lim_(p→∞)  ∫_0 ^p  (e^(−ax) −e^(−bx) )dx  = lim_(p→∞)  [ −(1/a)e^(−ax) +(1/b)e^(−bx)  ] _0 ^p   = 0−[−(1/a)+(1/b)]= (1/a)−(1/b)  = ((b−a)/(ab))

$$=\:\underset{{p}\rightarrow\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\underset{\mathrm{0}} {\overset{{p}} {\int}}\:\left({e}^{−{ax}} −{e}^{−{bx}} \right){dx} \\ $$$$=\:\underset{{p}\rightarrow\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\left[\:−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}}{e}^{−{ax}} +\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{b}}{e}^{−{bx}} \:\right]\underset{\mathrm{0}} {\overset{{p}} {\:}} \\ $$$$=\:\mathrm{0}−\left[−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{b}}\right]=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{b}} \\ $$$$=\:\frac{{b}−{a}}{{ab}} \\ $$
