Homework Statement



find the inverse laplace transformation of [itex]\frac{5s+4}{s^2}[/itex] e[itex]^{-2s}[/itex]

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution



I have tried to partial fractions [itex]\frac{5s+4}{s^2}[/itex] and I got [itex]\frac{5}{s}[/itex]+[itex]\frac{4}{s^2}[/itex] and I know that the answer must have u(t-2) because of second shifting ( a=2)

but I looked at the answer from this question is 5 u(t-2)(e[itex]^{4(t-2)}[/itex] - e[itex]^{-(t-2)}[/itex]).

I don't know how to get that answer please help
 
Physics news on Phys.org
so my answer is [5+4(t-2)] u(t-2) Is my answer right?
thank you

First: what is the inverse Laplace transform of ##(5s+4)/s^2##? Next: worry about the effect of the factor ##e^{-2s}##.
