Hello,
Given that f(x) is a function that satisfies ∫∞−∞etxf(x)dx=sin−1(t−√12), for all possible values of t, compute the doubly unbounded integral:
∫∞−∞xf(x)dx.
Thank you so much and enjoy!

Since the domain of arcsin is [-1,1], you know that 1/√2≤t≤1+1/√2
Also, by definition of improper integrals,
∫∞−∞etxf(x)dx=lima→−∞∫0aetxf(x)dx+limb→∞∫b0etxf(x)dx=sin−1(t−1√2)
∫∞−∞xf(x)dx=limc→−∞∫0cf(x)dx+limd→∞∫d0xf(x)dx
With some more bounding, you can get that ∫∞−∞xf(x)dx=π√24
