![x(x+1)(x+2)∙∙∙(x+n)=(((x+n)!)/((x−1)!)) =((Γ(x+n+1))/(Γ(x))) in Γ form, x and n do not have to be integers ∴∫_0 ^( n) ((Γ(x+n+1))/(Γ(x)))dx](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q3053.png)
$${x}\left({x}+\mathrm{1}\right)\left({x}+\mathrm{2}\right)\centerdot\centerdot\centerdot\left({x}+{n}\right)=\frac{\left({x}+{n}\right)!}{\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)!} \\ $$$$=\frac{\Gamma\left({x}+{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)}{\Gamma\left({x}\right)} \\ $$$$\mathrm{in}\:\Gamma\:\mathrm{form},\:\:{x}\:\:\mathrm{and}\:\:{n}\:\:\mathrm{do}\:\mathrm{not}\:\mathrm{have} \\ $$$$\mathrm{to}\:\mathrm{be}\:\mathrm{integers} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\therefore\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:{n}} \frac{\Gamma\left({x}+{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)}{\Gamma\left({x}\right)}{dx} \\ $$
