(integral sign)x^e^-x3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you really mean \[\int x^{e^{-x^3}}dx\] you are on your own for this one

OpenStudy (turingtest):

Yes, wolfram says there are no know standard functions for this solution. http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=integral+x%5Ee%5E%28-x%5E3%29dx

OpenStudy (turingtest):

known*

OpenStudy (turingtest):

neither for\[ \int\limits x^{e^{-3x}}dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thats what i meant. Are you saying it cannot ne soved?

OpenStudy (mr.math):

Even \(xe^{-x^3}\) can't be integrated to an elementary function.

OpenStudy (turingtest):

neither have elementary representations

OpenStudy (mr.math):

However if you have limits for the integration then its value can be estimated.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok, i see. there is no limits though how about ( integral sign)6x^5 lnx dx that can be solved right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would this be integration by parts i do belive the 1st one and second one can be solved by such

OpenStudy (turingtest):

yes, integration by parts will work for the other

OpenStudy (turingtest):

u=lnx dv=6x^5

OpenStudy (turingtest):

The first one; no way, simply not possible to use integration by parts. Ask someone like Zarkon or JamesJ to tell you more detail about what approaches are possible with this problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks i understand i read what u sent. i will
