Answer

\begin{aligned} L[3e^{2t}] &= \frac{3}{s-2} \\ \end{aligned}

Work Step by Step

Given $$f(t)=3e^{2t}$$ So, we get \begin{aligned} L[f(t)] & =\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-s t}f(t) \ d t\\ & =3\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-s t}e^{2t} d t \\ &=3\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-(s-2) t} d t\\ &= -\frac{3}{s-2}e^{-(s-2) t}| _{0}^{\infty} \\ &= 0-(-\frac{3}{s-2} ) \\ &= \frac{3}{s-2} \\ \end{aligned}
