    This document contains a student's assignment solution showing the steps to express an integral as the gamma function. The integral is from 0 to infinity of x^3 exp(-x^2) dx. The student makes a u-substitution of z = x^2, finds the integral of 0.5z exp(-z) dz from 0 to infinity, and identifies this as fulfilling the gamma distribution function formula of 0.5Γ(2).

    SJES 2235 ASSIGNMENT

    ∞
    Question 30.25 : Express ∫ x 3 exp( − x 2 ) dx as the gamma function
    0

    Solution :
    Let z = x 2 ,
    dz
    = 2x
    dx
    dz = 2x dx
    substitude dz dan z into the equation t hen we get as below,
    ∞

    ∫
    2 2
    0 . 5 x exp( − x ) dz
    0
    ∞

    ∫ 0.5z exp( − z )
    0
    dz

    ∫
    2−1
    0 . 5 z exp( − z ) dz
    0

    This equation fulfill the gamma distribution function


    so,
    = 0.5Γ(2)
