Solution:
given differential equation is
a) y(x)+4y(x)=1,y(0)=2
it can be written as
y+4y=1   (1)
taking laplace transform of eqn (1) we get
L{y}+L{4y}=L{1}
Step 2
sy(s)y(0)+4y(s)=1s
using initial condition we get
(s+4)y(s)2=1s
(s+4)y(s)=1s+2
y(s)=1s(s+4)+2s+4
y(s)=14(1s1s+4)+2s+4
y(s)=141s141(s+4)+2s+4
y(s)=141s+741(s+4)(3)
taking laplace inverse transform we get
L1{u(s)}=14L1{1s}+74L1{1s+4}
y(t)=141+74e4t
y(t)=14(1+e4t)
