A reliability model's density is proportional to gn(x)=x(1−x)ng_n(x)=x(1-x)^n on [0,1][0,1], for a positive integer nn. Substituting u=1−xu=1-x shows that its normalizing integral is ∫01x(1−x)n dx=1(n+1)(n+2)\displaystyle\int_0^1x(1-x)^n\,dx=\dfrac1{(n+1)(n+2)}. For what value of nn does this normalizing integral equal exactly 1110\dfrac1{110}?
