Math Problem Statement

I = Z 4 0 (te−tdt)

Solution

It looks like you're working with an integral expression that might involve some typographical or formatting issues. Let me break it down as best as I can based on the symbols provided.

The integral expression seems to be: I=04(tet)dtI = \int_{0}^{4} (te^{-t}) \, dt This is an integral of the function tette^{-t} from t=0t = 0 to t=4t = 4.

To solve this, you can use integration by parts.

Step-by-Step Solution:

  1. Set up the integration by parts formula: Recall the integration by parts formula: udv=uvvdu\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du

  2. Choose uu and dvdv: For tetdt\int te^{-t} \, dt, let:

    • u=tu = t (so that du=dtdu = dt)
    • dv=etdtdv = e^{-t} dt (so that v=etv = -e^{-t})
  3. Apply the formula: Now, applying the formula: tetdt=tet(et)dt\int te^{-t} \, dt = -t e^{-t} - \int (-e^{-t}) \, dt Simplifying: tetdt=tet+etdt\int te^{-t} \, dt = -t e^{-t} + \int e^{-t} \, dt

  4. Integrate the remaining part: The integral of ete^{-t} is et-e^{-t}, so: tetdt=tetet\int te^{-t} \, dt = -t e^{-t} - e^{-t}

  5. Evaluate the definite integral: Now evaluate from t=0t = 0 to t=4t = 4: I=[tetet]04I = \left[ -t e^{-t} - e^{-t} \right]_{0}^{4}

  6. Substitute the limits: First, at t=4t = 4: 4e4e4=5e4-4 e^{-4} - e^{-4} = -5e^{-4} And at t=0t = 0: 0e0e0=1-0 \cdot e^{0} - e^{0} = -1

  7. Final result: I=(5e4)(1)=5e4+1I = (-5e^{-4}) - (-1) = -5e^{-4} + 1

So, the value of the integral is: I=15e4I = 1 - 5e^{-4}
