Your calculator is obviously in approximate mode. Reset your calculator to exact mode.

Mode > F2 > Approx/Exact : switch to Exact instead of Auto.

Otherwise it's in this form because of the dot in -.1
If you don't want to switch the mode, write \int((10-10*e^(-x/10)),x)

and it will normally work.
