Finding the volume

Vol(S) = Antiderivative b to a of A(x)dx


A(x) is approximated by the function f(x) = (x^5)/(e^x^2) on the interval [0, 2]. Using this, find the volume.

Hi, yes this problem is submitted correctly. The question asked to find the volume of the object using the function f(x). I used u-substitution first and then integration by parts to solve. However, I wasn't sure if the method is correct.

If what you did is set y=x squared and then integrate by parts twice, I think you did a better job than I did because I think you came out with a simple exponential integral at the end.
