integration of $f(x) =\int exp(-ax-b*sin^{-1}(cx))$

[luiz]

I have been trying to find an analytical solution for the the following integral:

[MATH] \int exp(-ax-b*sin^{-1}(cx)) dx [/MATH]
I tried solving it by integration by parts without success. I then tried using Mathematica, which was also unable to solve it. Is it more or less time to switch to a numerical solution?

Yes... I would think so.....

For that to be successful - you need a definite integral.

Before that - you may try a series solution (I did not try it).

Thanks for taking a look @Subhotosh Khan.
