integral from 1 to infinity of 2/(x^5)

\int_{1}^{\infty} \frac{2}{x ^{5}} d x

\frac{1}{2}

Decimal

0.5

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{\infty} \frac{2}{x ^{5}} d x

Compute the indefinite integral:

\int \frac{2}{x ^{5}} d x = - \frac{1}{2 x ^{4}} + C

Compute the boundaries:

\int_{1}^{\infty} \frac{2}{x ^{5}} d x = 0 - (- \frac{1}{2})

= 0 - (- \frac{1}{2})

Simplify

= \frac{1}{2}
