    Probability - u substitution to find gamma function.

    Homework Statement \int_0^∞ x^2exp(-x/2) dx Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution Using u substitution: u = x/2 du = 1/2 dx \int_0^∞ 4u^2exp(-u) du*2 = 8 \Gamma(3) = 8*3! = 48 But the correct answer is 16 when I plug it in Wolfram's definite integral...
