Irreducible Quadratics II (4) Consider the Laplace transform pair $\cos t \leftrightarrow \frac{s}{s^2 + 1}$. (a) Use the dilation principle to show that $\cos(\omega t) \leftrightarrow \frac{s}{s^2 + \omega^2}$. (b) Use Part (a) and the output translation principle to show $e^{at}\cos(\omega t) \leftrightarrow \frac{s - a}{(s - a)^2 + \omega^2}$. (c) Use Part (b) and linearity to find $\mathcal{L}^{-1} \left(\frac{2s + 4}{s^2 + 4s + 20}\right)$.

Step 1
The dilation principle states that if F(s) is the Laplace transform of f(t), then F(as) is the Laplace transform of f(at), where a is a positive constant. In this case, we want to show that cos(wt) is the Laplace transform of cos(2t+1). To do this, we need to Show more…

Suppose that f(t) and g(t) are two functions; where F(s) = L{f(t)} and G(s) = L{g(t)}. Let H(s) be the Laplace transform of the function 7f(t) + 8g(t). If F(24) = 6 and G(24) = 5, then the value of H(24) is given by:
