That's an easy way to get a numerical solution to your problem. But I wonder if this has a closed-form solution as well.

You didn't answer my other question. What is the source of this problem ?

It's an extra credit from my DE professor, we've touched on Laplace basics already; Inverse Transforms, Step Functions, Heaviside Functions, Dirac-Delta Function, Solving IVP's, Nonhomogeneous IVP, Nonconstant Coefficient IVP, Convolution Integral.

I'm familiar with series solution eventhough it's a couple of chapters ahead from where we are. In essence, this class is pretty much self-taught; and I'll simply do this using Matlab as I can't possibly figure it out using contemporary methods. Or, maybe I could...

I'll take a break from this, see you in a couple of hours.

zip, I'll post the question sometime this week.
