integral from 0 to 1 of xe^{-4x^2}

\int_{0}^{1} x e^{- 4 x^{2}} d x

\frac{e ^{4} - 1}{8 e ^{4}}

Decimal

0.12271 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{1} x e^{- 4 x^{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int_{0}^{- 4} - \frac{e ^{u}}{8} d u

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

= - \int_{- 4}^{0} - \frac{e ^{u}}{8} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= - (- \frac{1}{8} \cdot \int_{- 4}^{0} e^{u} d u)

Use the common integral:

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

= - (- \frac{1}{8} [e^{u}]_{- 4}^{0})

Simplify

= \frac{1}{8} [e^{u}]_{- 4}^{0}

Compute the boundaries:

1 - \frac{1}{e ^{4}}

= \frac{1}{8} (1 - \frac{1}{e ^{4}})

Simplify

= \frac{e ^{4} - 1}{8 e ^{4}}
