Solving Laplace Transform Homework: Step-by-Step Guide

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on solving Laplace Transform homework using Partial Fraction Decomposition. The user is guided to factor 's' from the denominator and complete the square for the expression. The solution involves expressing the Laplace Transform as A/s + (Bs+C)/[(s+1)^2+4], allowing the use of the Laplace transform table for further simplification. This method streamlines the problem-solving process and ensures accuracy in obtaining the final result.

I tried extract an s at the denominator and perform complete the square at denominator.But i feel it would be way too long to solve this problem. Gimme guide on how to tackle this problem

The Attempt at a Solution

Do Partial Fraction Decomposition (factor s from the denominator and complete the square for later):
L{...} = A/s + (Bs+C)/[(s+1)^2+4]
then "fit" the fractions so you can use the Laplace transform table.
you are done.

Good Luck.
 
Thanks for the clue!
