Hey guys can someone please help me with this integral: FMM
I get that the dirac delta function is 1 when $$\tau=0$$ and it equals 0 otherwise, i just dont get how to change the integral limits when i plug in $$\tau=0$$ Thanks in advance

No, the delta function is not "1 when t= 0". You are mistaken about that.
It would be better to remember that the defining property of the delta function is that $\int_a^b f(t)\delta(t) dt= f(0)$ if $a\le 0\le b$, 0 otherwise.
So $\int_0^\infty e^{-a_i(t-\tau)}\delta(t)dt$ is equal to $e^{a_i\tau}$ if $t\ge 0$, 0 otherwise.
