Before we consider the transformation of Laplace, we analyze form (2) that we will consider below. We are now going to

Let it be f (t ) a complex function of the real t argument given with the exponential function e pt where p is a complex number

The integral of the function f (t ) in the segment a, b with the Function (3) is again a complex function of the real argument:

In the practice of the usage of the operational calculus, we often
find it when the function F ( p), is rational. By the end of this Based on (7) and (8) we can write the operational relation:
