SUBJECT: DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION

**Problem #1:**

Given the piecewise function \( f(t) \):

\[
f(t) = 
\begin{cases} 
e^{-\frac{1}{2}t + 2}, & \text{for } 0 \leq t < 4, \\
1, & \text{for } t \geq 4
\end{cases}
\]

Find \( F(s) = \mathcal{L}\{f(t)\} \) using the definition of the Laplace Transform. 

**Solution:**

To solve this problem, you need to apply the definition of the Laplace Transform to each piece of the function \( f(t) \). 

Remember, the Laplace Transform of a function \( f(t) \) is given by:

\[
\mathcal{L}\{f(t)\} = \int_0^{\infty} e^{-st} f(t) \, dt
\]

You'll need to calculate the integral for each piece of the function over its respective interval and then sum the results.
