Laplace transform of a second order ODE

20 Views Asked by At

This is my first time doing Laplace transform of derivatives and I'm not sure if my transform is correct.

The given expression is $$y^{''}+3y^{'} +2y=t$$ and the given values are $$y(0)=0, \space y^{'}(0)=2$$ What I got was $$S^2Y-0-2+3SY-3(0)+2Y=\frac{1}{s^2}$$ Then solving for $Y$ $$Y=\frac{1}{(S^2)(S^2+3S)}$$ Is my work correct?
