integral of-xe^{-4x}

\int - x e^{- 4 x} d x

- \frac{1}{16} (- 4 e^{- 4 x} x - e^{- 4 x}) + C

Solution steps

\int - x e^{- 4 x} d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= - \int x e^{- 4 x} d x

Apply u-substitution

= - \int \frac{e ^{u} u}{16} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= - \frac{1}{16} \cdot \int e^{u} u d u

Apply Integration By Parts

= - \frac{1}{16} (e^{u} u - \int e^{u} d u)

\int e^{u} d u = e^{u}

= - \frac{1}{16} (e^{u} u - e^{u})

Substitute back

u = - 4 x

= - \frac{1}{16} (e^{- 4 x} (- 4 x) - e^{- 4 x})

Simplify

= - \frac{1}{16} (- 4 e^{- 4 x} x - e^{- 4 x})

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{16} (- 4 e^{- 4 x} x - e^{- 4 x}) + C
