Integral of -x*exp(x) dx
The solution
Detail solution
-
Use integration by parts:
∫udv=uv−∫vdu
Let u(x)=−x and let dv(x)=ex.
Then du(x)=−1.
To find v(x):
-
The integral of the exponential function is itself.
∫exdx=ex
Now evaluate the sub-integral.
-
The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
∫(−ex)dx=−∫exdx
-
The integral of the exponential function is itself.
∫exdx=ex
So, the result is: −ex
-
Now simplify:
(1−x)ex
-
Add the constant of integration:
(1−x)ex+constant
The answer is:
(1−x)ex+constant
The answer (Indefinite)
