integral from 0 to 1 of y(e^{-y^2})

\int_{0}^{1} y (e^{- y^{2}}) d y

\frac{e - 1}{2 e}

Decimal Notation

0.31606 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{1} y e^{- y^{2}} d y

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{0}^{- 1} - \frac{e ^{u}}{2} d u

= \int_{0}^{- 1} - \frac{e ^{u}}{2} d u

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

= - \int_{- 1}^{0} - \frac{e ^{u}}{2} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= - (- \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{- 1}^{0} e^{u} d u)

Use the common integral:

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

= - (- \frac{1}{2} [e^{u}]_{- 1}^{0})

Simplify

= \frac{1}{2} [e^{u}]_{- 1}^{0}

Compute the boundaries:

1 - \frac{1}{e}

= \frac{1}{2} (1 - \frac{1}{e})

Simplify

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

\int_{0.5}^{1.5} \frac{x}{2} d x

\int_{0}^{π} sin^{2} (θ) cos (θ) d θ

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{4}{x ^{2} + 4} d x

\int_{0}^{2 π} cos (m x) cos (n x) d x
