laplacetransform (e^{-2t}-1)^2

laplace transform

(e^{- 2 t} - 1)^{2}

\frac{8}{s ( s + 4 ) ( s + 2 )}

Solution steps

L {(e^{- 2 t} - 1)^{2}}

Expand

(e^{- 2 t} - 1)^{2} : e^{- 4 t} - 2 e^{- 2 t} + 1

= L {e^{- 4 t} - 2 e^{- 2 t} + 1}

Use the linearity property of Laplace Transform:

For functions

f (t), g (t)

and constants

a, b : L {a \cdot f (t) + b \cdot g (t)} = a \cdot L {f (t)} + b \cdot L {g (t)}

= L {e^{- 4 t}} - 2 L {e^{- 2 t}} + L {1}

L {e^{- 4 t}} : \frac{1}{s + 4}

L {e^{- 2 t}} : \frac{1}{s + 2}

L {1} : \frac{1}{s}

= \frac{1}{s + 4} - 2 \cdot \frac{1}{s + 2} + \frac{1}{s}

Simplify

\frac{1}{s + 4} - 2 \frac{1}{s + 2} + \frac{1}{s} : \frac{8}{s ( s + 4 ) ( s + 2 )}

= \frac{8}{s ( s + 4 ) ( s + 2 )}
