I am asked to find the inverse laplace transform of the following function:
[tex]
\frac{ \left( s+3 \right) }{ \left( s+1 \right) \left( s+2 \right) }
[/tex]
Using tables, can anyone help me understand why the answer is:
[tex]
2e^{-t} - e^{-2t}
[/tex]
I'm completely loss on this one, and yet the book assumes this is easily determined. Any ideas?
Note: I already realize that the bottom can be rewritten using partial fractions, but it seems to me that the book assumes that isn't even necessary - which makes sense, since it doesn't seem to get me anywhere anyway.
