hello my friends I try to use the following integral:
q=int(exp(-0.0245*x)*x^-0.9755,0,99.2)
the answer is:
q=(7^(951/1000)*2000^(49/2000)*(gamma(49/2000) - igamma(49/2000, 1519/625)))/7
whats wrong with this solution. I have tried some numerical integration, but the answers are not my desired solution. could you please give me some appropriate ways to solve this kind of integration. Thank you

igamma is the incomplete gamma function. It is also available in MATLAB proper as gammainc. As far as I can see, that solution seems at least reasonable.
What is not to your liking about the result? Don't just say that you don't like a result. WHAT don't you like? All that we can do is guess. Here is my guess.
vpa(q)
ans =
