integral from 0 to 1 of (x^2-8)e^{-x}

\int_{0}^{1} (x^{2} - 8) e^{- x} d x

\frac{3}{e} - 6

Decimal

- 4.89636 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{1} (x^{2} - 8) e^{- x} d x

Apply Integration By Parts

= [- e^{- x} (x^{2} - 8) - \int - 2 e^{- x} x d x]_{0}^{1}

\int - 2 e^{- x} x d x = - 2 (- e^{- x} x - e^{- x})

= [- e^{- x} (x^{2} - 8) - (- 2 (- e^{- x} x - e^{- x}))]_{0}^{1}

Simplify

[- e^{- x} (x^{2} - 8) - (- 2 (- e^{- x} x - e^{- x}))]_{0}^{1} : [- e^{- x} x^{2} - 2 e^{- x} x + 6 e^{- x}]_{0}^{1}

= [- e^{- x} x^{2} - 2 e^{- x} x + 6 e^{- x}]_{0}^{1}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{3}{e} - 6

= \frac{3}{e} - 6
