∫ 0 ∞ 3 3 1 8 e 3 5 x 4 8 x 1 1 d x
If the above problem is of the form a 1 Γ ( b 1 ) , where a and b are integers, find sin ( a 2 Γ ( b 3 ) Γ ( b 9 ) ) . Write your answer to two decimal places.
Notation: Γ ( ⋅ ) denotes the gamma function.

I = ∫ 0 ∞ 3 3 1 8 e x 4 / 3 5 8 x 1 1 d x = ∫ 0 ∞ 3 6 e x 4 / 3 6 2 x 1 1 / 3 d x = 2 3 ∫ 0 ∞ t 1 / 6 e − t d t = 2 3 Γ ( 6 7 ) = 4 1 Γ ( 6 1 ) 3 6 x 4 = t ⟹ 3 6 4 x 3 d x = d t and ∫ 0 ∞ ↦ ∫ 0 ∞ Γ ( s + 1 ) = s Γ ( s )
Thus a = 1 6 and b = 6 .
Now
sin ⎝ ⎜ ⎜ ⎛ 4 2 Γ ( 6 3 ) Γ ( 6 9 ) ⎠ ⎟ ⎟ ⎞ = sin ⎝ ⎜ ⎜ ⎛ 2 Γ ( 2 1 ) ⋅ 2 1 ⋅ Γ ( 2 1 ) ⎠ ⎟ ⎟ ⎞ = sin ( 4 π ) = 2 1 ≈ 0 . 7 1 Γ ( 2 1 ) = π
