HNC engineering 'integration'

i have been learning about integration but this has me confused. I'm not sure the best way to start this. any advise please.

i=(E/R).e^-1/RC - integrate the equation with respect to t and hence find the charge stored in the capacitator one second after the switch is closed

E - ( 10V )
R - ( 1.0 m ohms )
C - ( 1.0 uF )

I guess the e^-1/RC should be e^-t/RC? Otherwise it doesn't make much sense. Have you covered integrating an exponential?
