1 / | | -5*x | x*e dx | / 0
Integral(x*exp(-5*x), (x, 0, 1))
Use integration by parts:
Let and let .
Then .
To find :
Let .
Then let and substitute :
The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
The integral of the exponential function is itself.
So, the result is:
Now substitute back in:
Now evaluate the sub-integral.
The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

Then let and substitute :
The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
The integral of the exponential function is itself.
So, the result is:
Now substitute back in:
So, the result is:
Now simplify:
Add the constant of integration:
The answer is:
/ | -5*x -5*x | -5*x e x*e | x*e dx = C - ----- - ------- | 25 5 /
-5 1 6*e -- - ----- 25 25
=
-5 1 6*e -- - ----- 25 25
1/25 - 6*exp(-5)/25
