F(s) = ( 4s^3 - 3s^2 + 6s + 10 ) / ( s^2 ( s^2 - 2s + 5 ))

sorry i can't give you a specific part where i'm messing this one up, i just don't know how to factor it into things i can calculate... we get to use a table that gives a few basic laplace transforms, but i haven't been able to get it simplified enough. Maybe this requires partial fractions?

It does require breaking into partial fractions:

( 4s^3 - 3s^2 + 6s + 10 ) / ( s^2 ( s^2 - 2s + 5 )) = A/s + B/s^2 + (Cs + D)/(s^2 - 2s + 5)
 
Thanks... that's what I was thinking. I'm pretty sure I got to the right answer. I really like your Neumann quote btw.
