How can I calculate this integral of this function:

e^((-x^4+2*x-2)/(2*x^2))
 
With respect to t, the answer would be {e^((-x^4+2*x-2)/(2*x^2))}t + c

Please state the exact problem as this is important to learn.

What have you tried? Where are you stuck? Please show us something so that we can help. Also are you sure you copied this correctly?
 
With respect a x

I really don't know what to do. But thanks for your help!

There is no closed form solution for the indefinite integral. W|A gives a number for the definite integral [math]\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \text{ ...}[/math] but I doubt that there is any closed form for this either. You might find a way to do it using complex analysis but it will take someone better than me to do it.

This is why you need to show your work even if it is wrong or tell us what topic the problem came from. In that way we can see the method you are trying to use or what method you should use. For example you can approximate the integral if it was a definite integral using rectangles. Maybe writing the integrand as an infinite series might make the integral fairly easy to do. We need to know something. By the way I did know that this integral was not going to be solved using some u-sub.
