Hi Hanna,
your function is essentially zero outside a short interval around 9. And
the help page states: "If the function is approximately constant (in
particular, zero) over nearly all its range it is possible that the
result and error estimate may be seriously wrong."
You could try to integrate over a finite interval, say (7, 12).

Sorry. I meant in the previous email that the function h() is a monotone
decreasing function. Thanks very much.

Hi all,
The function h below is a function of c and it should be a monotone
increasing function since the integrand is nonnegative and integral is
taken from c to infinity. However, as we can see from the plot, it is not
shown to be monotone. Something wrong with the usage of integrate function?
Thanks so much for your help.
Hanna
h <- function(c){
g <- function(x){pnorm(x-8.8, mean=0.4, sd=0.3,
lower.tail=TRUE)*dnorm(x, mean=9,sd=0.15)}
integrate(g, lower=c, upper=Inf)$value}
xx <- seq(-20,20,by=0.001)
y <- xx
for (i in 1:length(xx)){y[i] <- h(xx[i])}
plot(xx, y)
