im just checking...coz my answer makes no sense Find the area bounded by \(y = xe^x\) and y = 0 in the 3rd quadrant.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have this as your integral? \[\int\limits_{-\infty}^{0}xe^xdx\]

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have the integral coming out to be \[e^x(x-1) + c\] then after evaluation from - infinity to 0, equalling -1?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

i dont think there should be a +C though since it's a definite integral

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

i got 1 btw not negative...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:P did you evaluate in the correct order? IE F(0) - F(-inf)?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

*facepalm* i forgot to wrote negative...i didnt see it @_@
