Nice copy and paste from Yahoo Answer...

@Markiplier, you answer have something missing or you misunderstood the question. It's x*e^(-x)

geerky42 (geerky42):

I don't really know the appropriate approach, but if you do direct substitution, you will get \(-\infty\cdot\infty\) One approaches to infinity and other approaches to negative infinity; Multiplying them and you pretty much have a negative infinity. So \(\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-\infty}xe^{-x}=\boxed{-\infty}\)

Thanks so much, yeah I think that what you did is correct. Thanks again
