integral from 0 to 2 of xe^{-(x^2)/2}

\int_{0}^{2} x e^{- \frac{x ^{2}}{2}} d x

1 - \frac{1}{e ^{2}}

Decimal

0.86466 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{2} x e^{- \frac{x ^{2}}{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{0}^{- 2} - e^{u} d u

= \int_{0}^{- 2} - e^{u} d u

\int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x = - \int_{b}^{a} f (x) d x, a < b

= - \int_{- 2}^{0} - e^{u} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= - (- \int_{- 2}^{0} e^{u} d u)

Use the common integral:

\int e^{u} d u = e^{u}

= - (- [e^{u}]_{- 2}^{0})

Simplify

= [e^{u}]_{- 2}^{0}

Compute the boundaries:

1 - \frac{1}{e ^{2}}

= 1 - \frac{1}{e ^{2}}

\int_{0}^{4} π (y)^{2} d y

\int_{1}^{s i n (x)} 7 t^{6} d t

\int_{0}^{y} x y^{2} d x

\int_{1}^{8} (t^{2} - 4 t - 12) d t

\int_{0}^{1} 1 x + 6 d x
