Correct answer: C
Evaluatef(x).
Given
f(x)=∫−xx(∣t∣−t2)e−t2dt.
For symmetric limits, split the integrand into even/odd parts.
∣t∣ is even,
t2 is even,
hence (∣t∣−t2) is even,
and e−t2 is also even.
So the whole integrand is even. Therefore,
f(x)=2∫0x(t−t2)e−t2dt.
Thus,
f(x)=2(∫0xte−t2dt−∫0xt2e−t2dt).
Now compute these terms.
For the first integral,
∫0xte−t2dt=−21e−t20x=21(1−e−x2).
So,
2∫0xte−t2dt=1−e−x2.
For the second integral, use integration by parts through the identity
