Short Answer

In Problems 15-24 , solve for Ys , the Laplace transform of the solution y(t) to the given initial value problem.

y''-2y'-y=e2t-et; y0=1, y'0=3

The Initial value for y''-2y'-y=e2t-et is Y(s)=s3-2s2-s+3s2-2s-1(s-2)(s-1)

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Determine the Laplace Transform

  • The Laplace transform is a strong integral transform used in mathematics to convert a function from the time domain to the s-domain.
  • In some circumstances, the Laplace transform can be utilized to solve linear differential equations with given beginning conditions.
  • Fs=0f(t)e-stt'

Step 2: Determine the Laplace transform

Applying the Laplace transform and using its linearity we get

Ly''-2y'-y=Le2t-etLy''-2Ly'-Ly=1s-2-1s-1

Solve for the Laplace transform as:

s2Ys-sy0-y'0-2sYs-y0-Ys=1s-2s-1s2Ys-s-3-2sYs+2-Ys=1s-2s-1

s2Ys-2sYs-Ys=1(s-2)(s-1)+s+1s2-2s-1Ys=s3-2s2-s+3s-2s-1

Solve further as:

Ys=s3-2s2-s+3s2-2s-1s-2s-1

Therefore, the Initial value for y''-2y'-y=e2t-et is Ys=s3-2s2-s+3s2-2s-1s-2s-1
