Derivative Problem: I'm Unsure of My Work

[Lancelot59]

I'm unsure of my work when completing this problem:

y=e^{-x^{2}} \int^{x}_{0} e^{t^{2}} dt + c_{1}e^{-x^{2}}

I applied the product rule to the left bit.

\frac{dy}{dx}=e^{-x^{2}} e^{x^{2}} + e^{-x^{2}}(-2x)\int^{x}_{0} e^{t^{2}} dt + (-2x)c_{1}e^{-x^{2}}

I'm fairly certain I did this wrong.

I believe that:
\int^{x}_{0} e^{t^{2}} dt
Is a constant with respect to x, so you don't need to use the product rule, just treat it like any other constant

No, this is a function with respect to x, so the product rule is valid here.

So I derived it correctly?

I'm certain you did it right. Why do you think otherwise?

It's from a problem where I need to verify that it is a solution to:

y'+2xy=1

I was concerned that the integral still containing the "t" variable wouldn't cancel, however upon re-inspection I think it should.
