Try to find the inverse Laplace transform for:
1 s + 1 e s
The answer says that the inverse Laplace transform is:
L 1 ( 1 s + 1 e s ) = e t 1 u ( t 1 )
I'm aware that the Heaviside function's transform is:
L ( u ( t a ) ) = 1 s e a s L ( f ( t a ) u ( t a ) ) = e a s F ( s )
but I'm having trouble figuring out how the inverse transform was derived.

Hint: Apply the transform in reverse
L 1 ( e a s F ( s ) ) = f ( t a ) u ( t a )
where
F ( s ) = 1 s + 1
therefore
f ( t ) = L 1 ( F ( s ) ) = L 1 ( 1 s + 1 ) = e t
