Using integration by substitution with u = x 2 \ u = x^2 \ I = \int_{0}^{1} x^5 e^{x^2} dx = \frac{1}{2} \int_{0}^{1} u^2 e^u du = \frac{1}{2} F \........(1) Now we use integration by parts given by t d v = t v v d t \ \int t dv = tv - \int v dt with t = u 2 \ t = u^2 and d v = e u \ dv = e^u : F = [ u 2 e u ] 0 1 2 0 1 u e u d u = e 2 G \ F = [u^2 e^u ]_{0}^{1} - 2 \int_0^1 u e^u du = e - 2G Similarily we use by parts on the integral G: G = [ u e u ] 0 1 0 1 e u d u = e [ e u ] 0 1 = e ( e 1 ) = 1 \ G = [u e^u]_0^1 - \int_0^1 e^u du = e - [e^u]_0^1 = e-(e-1) = 1 F = e 2 G = e 2 \therefore\ F = e -2G = e - 2 Using (1): I = 0 1 x 5 e x 2 d x = 1 2 ( e 2 ) \therefore\ I = \int_{0}^{1} x^5 e^{x^2} dx = \frac{1}{2} (e-2)
