First translation theorem (Section 7.3.1)

1.
L t3e 2t

Using the First Translation Theorem we have

a = 2

f (t) = t

So F (s) = s4
; F (s a) = F (s + 2) = (s+2)4
:
Hence,

Using the First Translation Theorem we have

a = 2
f (t) = cos 4t

So

F (s) = ) F (s a) = F (s + 2) =

Assume (s+4)4 = F (s + 4) (i.e. is a function of s + 4)

De…ne w s + 4. Hence, s + 1 = w 3 and so
