Solve pde using laplace?

116 Views Asked by At

I have to solve the following pde using Laplace transforms:

$xw_x + w_t= xt$ i.c: w(x,0)= 0

Firstly, transforming the above wrt t, i get: $\bar{w_x} + s\bar{w}/x = 1/s^2$

But, in the textbook, the transformation is given as : $\bar{w_x} + s/x = 1/s^2$ Why is there no $\bar{w}$ on the LHS in the textbook answer?

definition of Laplace transform from textbook: $\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-st}u(t)dt$

Lalpace transform used: $L(u')= s\bar{u} - u_0$
