Question is find the Laplace transform of this equation:
x ( w ) ( x ) + ( w ) ( t ) = x t
Boundary conditions :
w ( x , 0 ) = 0 x 0
w ( 0 , t ) = 0 t 0
I've got as far as
d ( W ) d ( x ) + s x W = 1 s 2

d W d x + s x W = 1 s 2
Following the hints in the comments, the solution of the equation is
W ( x , s ) = x s 2 ( s + 1 ) + c 1 x s
But W ( 0 , s ) = 0 and because it holds for any s
0 = c 1 x s c 1 = 0
W ( x , s ) = x s 2 ( s + 1 )
and
w ( x , t ) = x ( e t + t 1 )
