Laplace transform (English)

Search for " Laplace transform " in NRICH | PLUS | maths.org | Google

If we have f(x), a function of x, we can turn it into another function of another variable, say y, using the Laplace transform:

F(y) =

⌠
⌡

∞

0

e^{− xy} f(x)dx .

Sometimes this is written F(y)=L(f(x)).
