y(0)=1, y'(0)=1
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
This is annoying, because it feels very easy and I don't know why I am not getting the answer. Skipping the routine:
s^2L{y} - s - 1 - 4sL{y} + 4 + 4L{y} = 0
(s+3) / (s^2 - 4s + 4) = L{y}
= s/(s-2)^2 + 3/(s-2)^2
= 1/(s-2) + 2(1/(s-2)^2) +3(1/(s-2)^2)
= 5(1/(s-2)^2) + 1/(s-2)
The inverse transform of which gives:
5te^2t + e^2t = (5t+1)e^2t
Any ideas?
Thanks!
