integral of xe^{-(ax+b)^2}

\int x e^{- (a x + b)^{2}} d x

\frac{1}{a ^{2}} (- \frac{1}{2} e^{- a^{2} x^{2} - 2 ab x - b^{2}} - \frac{π}{2} b erf (a x + b)) + C

Solution steps

\int x e^{- (a x + b)^{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{e ^{- u^{2}} ( u - b )}{a ^{2}} d u

= \int \frac{e ^{- u^{2}} ( u - b )}{a ^{2}} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{a ^{2}} \cdot \int e^{- u^{2}} (u - b) d u

Expand

e^{- u^{2}} (u - b) : e^{- u^{2}} u - b e^{- u^{2}}

= \frac{1}{a ^{2}} \cdot \int e^{- u^{2}} u - b e^{- u^{2}} d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \frac{1}{a ^{2}} (\int e^{- u^{2}} u d u - \int b e^{- u^{2}} d u)

\int e^{- u^{2}} u d u = - \frac{1}{2} e^{- u^{2}}

\int b e^{- u^{2}} d u = b \frac{π}{2} erf (u)

= \frac{1}{a ^{2}} (- \frac{1}{2} e^{- u^{2}} - b \frac{π}{2} erf (u))

Substitute back

u = a x + b

= \frac{1}{a ^{2}} (- \frac{1}{2} e^{- (a x + b)^{2}} - b \frac{π}{2} erf (a x + b))

Expand

- (a x + b)^{2} : - a^{2} x^{2} - 2 ab x - b^{2}

= \frac{1}{a ^{2}} (- \frac{1}{2} e^{- a^{2} x^{2} - 2 ab x - b^{2}} - \frac{π}{2} b erf (a x + b))

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{a ^{2}} (- \frac{1}{2} e^{- a^{2} x^{2} - 2 ab x - b^{2}} - \frac{π}{2} b erf (a x + b)) + C

\int x ln (2 x) - x d x

\int (3 x^{2} + \frac{x}{6}) d x

\int x^{4} y cos (y^{2}) d y

\int \frac{6 x}{3 - 8 x ^{4}} d x

\int \frac{1}{x + 2 x + 3} d x
