Laplace II: Steps, Impulses & Convolution · Challenge problem

A drug dose passes through three body compartments in turn (gut, blood, tissue), each emptying into the next at rate 11: g′=−g+δ(t)g'=-g+\delta(t), b′=g−bb'=g-b, c′=b−cc'=b-c, with all three empty before t=0t=0. Using Laplace transforms, find the largest amount c(t)c(t) that the tissue ever holds.
