How do you integrate by parts: xe3xdx?

This seems to be:

xe3xdx

e3(x) wouldn't make sense (e is a constant, not a function), and e3x(ex)3 (improper implications from trign(x)=(trigx)n). ex3 would be very advanced to integrate, and would not be remotely easy by integration by parts. x2e3 would be way too simple.

Assuming so...

Let:
u=x
du=1dx
dv=e3xdx
v=13e3x

=uvvdu

=x3e3x13e3xdx

=x3e3x13[13e3x]+C]

=x3e3x19e3x+C

or

=e3x9(3x1)+C
