If there is a mod reading this who doesn't do maths, please don't get me in trouble! Should be obvious that I'm not actually asking for help though I hope.

chain rule: d(k^2) = dk*2k, so divided by dk it's 2k = 2k posts.

if you take the integral of the derivative of the square of the power of 10 multiplied by eulers number you should get your answer to be zero

I was confused about the Integra note in the OP, but then I died a little on the inside as well.

I think is the first step. Real men do math by first principles. Good luck have fun ^_^
