integral from 0 to infinity of x^1e^{-x}

\int_{0}^{\infty} x^{1} e^{- x} d x

1

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\infty} x^{1} e^{- x} d x

Compute the indefinite integral:

\int x^{1} e^{- x} d x = - e^{- x} x - e^{- x} + C

Compute the boundaries:

\int_{0}^{\infty} x^{1} e^{- x} d x = 0 - (- 1)

= 0 - (- 1)

Simplify

= 1
