Try rearranging the equation.

\int{v_{(t)} = 4 - \frac{v_{(t)}}{5}

What function do you know that will yield this kind of result?

I know the answer is 20e^(-5t) by just taking the 1/10 out from the v(t), and the k on top of the exponential is negative 10/2 but I don't know the solving mechanismMy calc book only has one example and it is when it equals a function and not a constant in the first equation, so I can just differentiate the equation to get rid of the integral

The answer should be in the form A+Bexp(-kt)
A is zero for this equation but can I find B without any initial conditions?

Taking the common integral of e you can start with this

\int{e^{(ct)} = \frac{e^{ct}}{c}
