Find the exact value of Integral from 0 to infinity of x * f(x) dx?
Find the exact (not calculator) value of Integral from 0 to infinity of x * f(x) dx, given the fact that Integral from 0 to infinity of e^(-x^2) dx = sqrt(pi)/2
f(x) = xe^(-x^2)

∫ x * f(x) = ∫ x * xe^(-x²) = ∫ x²e^(-x²)
Now hint: Do this by parts. What do you get?
