Hey, I have been studying differential equations a bit and was wanting some help on some proofs. There are 3 laplace transforms I would like proofs for. Not really sure where to get started or if someone could lead me to place that has these proofs I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Have you tried just integrating?

The definition of the Laplace transform of f(x) is
\int_0^\infty e^{-sx}f(x)dx

The transform of the delta function is pretty close to trivial:
\int_0^\infty e^{-sx}\delta(x)dx= e^{0x}= 1

For f(x)= x^ne^{ax}u(x) do repeated integration by parts letting u= x^n, dv= e^{ax}u(x) until you have reduced the power of x to 0.

For f(t-t_0)u(t-t_0) do the obvious substitution: let v= t- t_0.
 
Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
