Step 1 Theory : The Laplace transform of a second order linear differential equation : subject to initial conditions y(0)=A and y'(0)=B is given by, Taking inverse laplace transform on both sides we get, Step 2 Given two simultaneous differential equations with ICs, Taking Laplace transforms on both sides of each equation and using notation we obtain, Using initial conditions, Solving equations (1) and (2) for X and Y we obtain, Using partial fractions method in (3) and (4) we further get the values of X and Y as, Using inverse laplace transform we get, The answer is
