Hello i would like some help with laplace transforms.

SUMMARY

The Laplace transform of the function -3e^{9t} + 9 sin(9t) is definitively expressed as -3/(s - 9) + 9/(s^2 + 81). To input this into a math program, it is essential to format it correctly, as some programs may require the fractions to be combined. The combined form is -3s^2 + 9s - 324 / (s^3 - 9s^2 + 81s - 729). Users should ensure they understand the specific syntax required by their math software for accurate computation.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Laplace transforms and their properties
  • Familiarity with mathematical notation and syntax
  • Experience with mathematical software or programming languages
  • Knowledge of functions such as exponential and sine functions
NEXT STEPS
  • Learn how to use mathematical software like MATLAB or Mathematica for Laplace transforms
  • Study the properties of Laplace transforms in detail
  • Explore the process of combining fractions in algebraic expressions
  • Investigate common syntax requirements for various math programs
USEFUL FOR

Students, engineers, and mathematicians who are working with Laplace transforms and need to input complex mathematical expressions into software for analysis or computation.

hello if someone could please tell me if i am incorrect and where , and how to type it into a math program so it can understand it many thanks stephan2124

L -3e^{9t}+9 sin(9t)
L-3e^{9t}+L 9 sin (9t)
-3 Le^{9t}+9 L sin(9t)
-3 (1/s-9) +9 (9/(s^2+9^2))
-3 (1/s-9) +9 (9/(s^2+81))

into a math program
-3*(1/(s-9)+9*(9/s exp +81)

We have no way of knowing what your math program will accept as an answer!

Yes, the Laplace transform of -3e^{9t}+ 9 sin(9t) is -3 times the Laplace transform of e^{9t} plus 9 times the Laplace transform if sin(9t). Yes, the Laplace transform of e^{9t} is \frac{1}{s- 9} and the Laplace transform of sin(9t) is \frac{1}{s^2+ 9^2}= \frac{1}{s^2+ 81} so the Laplace transform of
-3e^{9t}+ 9 sin(9t) is \frac{-3}{s- 9}+ \frac{9}{s^2+ 81}.

Now, if your math program does not accept that, perhaps it wants the two fractions added: \frac{-3(s^2+ 81)}{(s- 9)(s^2+ 81)}+ \frac{9(s- 9)}{(s- 9)(s^2+ 81)}= \frac{-3s^2- 243}{(s- 9)(s^2+ 81)}+ \frac{9s- 81}{(s- 9)(s^2+ 81)}= \frac{-3s^2+ 9s- 324}{(s- 9)(s^2+ 81)}= \frac{-3s^2+ 9s- 324}{s^3- 9s^2+ 81s- 729}= -\frac{3s^2- 9s+ 324}{s^3- 9s^2+ 81s- 729}.

Any one of those is a correct answer.

Actually it's $\displaystyle \frac{9}{s^2 + 81} $.

so the Laplace transform of
-3e^{9t}+ 9 sin(9t) is \frac{-3}{s- 9}+ \frac{9}{s^2+ 81}.


Actually it's $\displaystyle -\frac{3}{s - 9} + \frac{81}{s^2 + 81}$.To enter it in Weblearn you will need to write:

-3/(s - 9) + 81/(s^2 + 81)
