Answer:x=1

4 - 5(3- 2x) = -2x + 1

4 - 15 +10x = -2x+1

-11 +10x = -2x+1

-11+10x+2x = -2x+2x +1

-11+12x = 1

-11 +11 + 12x = 11+1

12x = 12

12x/12 = 12/12

x =1

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

4 - 5(3- 2x) = -2x + 1

Distribute

4 - 15 +10x = -2x+1

Combine like terms

-11 +10x = -2x+1

Add 2x to each side

-11+10x+2x = -2x+2x +1

-11+12x = 1

Add 11 to each side

-11 +11 + 12x = 11+1

12x = 12

Divide each side by

12x/12 = 12/12

x = 1

Calculate the Laplace transforms of the following from the definition. 1. y = t^2. y = t^3

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

1) $L(y)=\frac{2}{s^{3}}$

2) $L(y)=\frac{6}{s^{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Calculate the Laplace transforms of the following from the definition ?

Solution :

We know that,

Laplace transforms of $t^n$ is given by,

$L(t^n)=\frac{n!}{s^{n+1}}$

1) $y=t^2$

Laplace of y,

$L(y)=L(t^2)$ here n=2

$L(y)=\frac{2!}{s^{2+1}}$

$L(y)=\frac{2}{s^{3}}$

2) $y=t^3$

Laplace of y,

$L(y)=L(t^3)$ here n=3

$L(y)=\frac{3!}{s^{3+1}}$

$L(y)=\frac{3\times 2}{s^{4}}$

$L(y)=\frac{6}{s^{4}}$
