Can someone please help me!!! Use the definition of the Laplace Transform to find the transform of the function shown in the link https://instruct.math.lsa.umich.edu/webwork2_course_files/ma216-u12/tmp/gif/rilayian-103-sethomework6prob13image1.png

@ranyai12 you there ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i am

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have given piecewise function .first the definition of Laplace is \[[\Large F(s)=\int\limits\limits_{0}^{\infty}e^{-st}f(t)dt\]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry openstudy logged me out!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what values from the graph would we incorporate?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sami-21 are you still there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i am here . openstudy crashed me :( i was typing everything went off :( let me try again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy is a bit of a pain today, I was opening this question about 20 minutes ago, and by now I am here hehe.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol yea i understand it kept on logging me out!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is piece wise function can be written as

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you get the integration to be (-3e^(-st))/s

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes apply the limits

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the limits are the s right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nopes!! they are for t :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so the answer would be (3e^(-5s)(3e^s-1))/s

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you did a mistake . first take 3 common also the second one should be e^(-2s)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean first take 3 common

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is 3(e^5s/s-e^2s/s)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\Large \frac{-3}{s}|e^{-st}|_{2}^{5}=\frac{-3}{s}[e^{-5s}-e^{-2s}]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ranyai12 yes it is just you missed minus sign with the s in the exponent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you 're welcome :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it ended up being wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait nevermind i got it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it was right! i plugged it in wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-: !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you must have missed minus sign with 3 :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did! lol
