13.30. SOLUTION OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS BY LAPLACE TRANSFORMS
Ordinary linear differential equations with constant coefficients can be easily solved by
the Laplace Transform method, without finding the general solution and the arbitrary constants,
‘The method will be clear from the following examples:
