This worksheet is designed to give you a template for many of the things you will be doing with a system of differential equations (as discussed in Chapter 2 of BDH). Delete uneccessary lines, and don't forget to execute the worksheet from the top once you have entered all the desired changes. You may find it useful to keep a completed Maple worksheet open in another window as a guide ("tile" the windows so you can see both at once). In fact you can even copy and paste from one window to another if you wish.

Getting started

Defining the model

Step 1: Apply Laplace transform to the ODE or IVP ( laplace )

Step 2: Solve for Laplace transform of the solution

Step 3: Invert the Laplace transform ( invlaplace )
