Just a doubt!!! When u changed the variable z=(1-i )u How did the the upper limit change to inf and not (1-i )*inf

You are right. My solution may not be valid.
I used differentiation under the integral sign...
can you post your solution?

Let I be the integral, then we have:
I = ∫ 0 ∞ e − x 3 sin x 3 d x Let u = x 3 , d u = 3 x 2 d x = ∫ 0 ∞ 3 u 3 2 e − u sin u d u = ℑ ∫ 0 ∞ 3 1 ( u − 3 2 e − u e u i ) d u = 3 1 ℑ ∫ 0 ∞ u − 3 2 e − ( 1 − i ) u d u Let z = ( 1 − i ) u , d z = ( 1 − i ) d u = 3 1 ℑ ( ( 1 − i ) − 3 1 ∫ 0 ∞ z 3 1 − 1 e − z d z ) = 3 1 ℑ ( ( 2 e − 4 π i ) − 3 1 Γ ( 3 1 ) ) = 3 1 ℑ ( 6 2 e 1 2 π i Γ ( 3 1 ) ) = 6 2 sin 1 2 π Γ ( 3 4 ) = 2 2 6 2 ( 3 − 1 ) Γ ( 3 4 ) = 3 2 5 ( 3 − 1 ) Γ ( 3 4 )
⇒ A + B + C + D + E = 3 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 5 = 1 7
