Homework Statement



Show that f(t)=e^(5t) sin(t) satisfies the condition for the LaPlace transform to exist

I can solve the Laplace and get 2/((s-5)^2 + 4)

How do I show that the conditions exist? If it is solvable using the table, shouldn't that be enough?

You must show that the improper integral defining the Laplace transform of the function exists. Recall that you define the value of an improper integral as the limit of a regular definite integral as the limit of integration approaches the singular value (in this case the upper limit of integration approaching infinity).
