Example of Laplace Transform

Let $\laptrans f$ denote the Laplace transform of the real function $f$.


$\laptrans {4 e^{5 t} + 6 t^3 - 3 \sin 4 t + 2 \cos 2 t} = \dfrac 4 {s - 5} + \dfrac {36} {s^4} - \dfrac {12} {s^2 + 16} + \dfrac {2 s} {s^2 + 4}$


Proof

\(\ds \laptrans {4 e^{5 t} + 6 t^3 - 3 \sin 4 t + 2 \cos 2 t}\) \(=\) \(\ds 4 \laptrans {e^{5 t} } + 6 \laptrans {t^3} - 3 \laptrans {\sin 4 t} + 2 \laptrans {\cos 2 t}\) Linear Combination of Laplace Transforms
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 4 \paren {\dfrac 1 {s - 5} } + 6 \laptrans {t^3} - 3 \laptrans {\sin 4 t} + 2 \laptrans {\cos 2 t}\) Laplace Transform of Exponential
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 4 \paren {\dfrac 1 {s - 5} } + 6 \paren {\dfrac {3!} {s^4} } - 3 \laptrans {\sin 4 t} + 2 \laptrans {\cos 2 t}\) Laplace Transform of Positive Integer Power
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 4 \paren {\dfrac 1 {s - 5} } + 6 \paren {\dfrac {3!} {s^4} } - 3 \paren {\dfrac 4 {s^2 + 4^2} } + 2 \laptrans {\cos 2 t}\) Laplace Transform of Sine
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 4 \paren {\dfrac 1 {s - 5} } + 6 \paren {\dfrac {3!} {s^4} } - 3 \paren {\dfrac 4 {s^2 + 4^2} } + 2 \paren {\dfrac s {s^2 + 2^2} }\) Laplace Transform of Cosine
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \dfrac 4 {s - 5} + \dfrac {36} {s^4} - \dfrac {12} {s^2 + 16} + \dfrac {2 s} {s^2 + 4}\) simplifying

$\blacksquare$
