TUTORIAL SHEET 8(2026)

We know that Lappace tansform of f (t), t ≥ 0 is defined as


∫ ∞
L(f )(s) = e−st f (t)dt
0
whenever the integral exists.
Recall that

Laplace transform is linear.
Shifting Theorem: If Lapace transform of f is F then Laplace transform of
eat f (t) is F (s − a).

(b) y ′ − 5y = 1.5e−4t y(0) = 1
(c) y ′′ − y ′ − 2y = 0 y(0) = 8, y ′ (0) = 7
(d) y ′′ + 2y ′ − 3y = 6e−2t y(0) = 2, y ′ (0) = −14
4. Use convolution theorem to find inverse Laplace transform for the follow-

(b) y ′′ + y = t, y(0) = 0, y ′ (0) = 0
