Make Substitution: Simplify the integral by making a substitution.Let u=x, which implies that x=u2. Now, differentiate both sides with respect to u to find dx in terms of du.dud(u2)=2udx=2udu
Rewrite in Terms of u: Rewrite the integral in terms of u. The integral becomes: ∫xe40xdx=∫ue40u2udu Simplify the integrand by canceling u in the numerator and denominator. ∫ue40u2udu=∫e40u2du
Evaluate Integral: Evaluate the integral.The integral of e40u2 with respect to u is a standard exponential integral.∫e40u2du=−402⋅e40u1+C=−201⋅e40u1+C
Substitute Back: Substitute back the original variable x.Since u=x, we have:−201⋅e40u1+C=−201⋅e40x1+C
Write Final Answer: Write the final answer.The integral of xe40xdx is:−201×e40x1+C
