A new college textbook edition typically generates most of its sales in the year of its publication. Sales drop off in subsequent years as a result of competition from the used book market. Suppose that the annual sales of a particular textbook may be modeled by

Use integration by parts to determine how many textbooks will be sold in the first three years of the edition?
