Why
L ( x n ) ( s ) = n s L ( x n 1 ) ( s )
This one line has got me stuck! I know that
L ( f ( x ) g ( x ) ) F ( s ) G ( s )
so how could this line be valid.Please help.

By parts:
u = x n u = n x n 1 v = e s x v = e s x s
0 e s x x n d x = x n e s x s | 0 + n s 0 x n 1 e s x d x
Now just check the first term in the RHS above is zero...

L ( x ) ( s ) n s then no contradiction.
