calculate  L{ ((x^(n−1)  e^(−ax) )/((n−1)!))} then conclude  L^(−1) {  (1/((a+x)^n ))}
$${calculate}\:\:{L}\left\{\:\frac{{x}^{{n}−\mathrm{1}} \:{e}^{−{ax}} }{\left({n}−\mathrm{1}\right)!}\right\}\:{then}\:{conclude} \\ $$$${L}^{−\mathrm{1}} \left\{\:\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left({a}+{x}\right)^{{n}} }\right\} \\ $$

we have L{((x^(n−1)  e^(−ax) )/((n−1)!))}=∫_0 ^∞    ((t^(n−1)  e^(−at) )/((n−1)!)) e^(−xt)  dt  =(1/((n−1)!))∫_0 ^∞    t^(n−1)  e^(−(a+x)t) dt  =_((a+x)t=u)    (1/((n−1)!))∫_0 ^∞    (u^(n−1) /((a+x)^(n−1) )) e^(−u)  (du/(a+x))  = (1/((n−1)!(a+x)^n )) ∫_0 ^∞     u^(n−1)  e^(−u)  du  but  A_n  =∫_0 ^∞  u^(n−1)  e^(−u)  du =[(1/n)u^n  e^(−u) ]_0 ^∞   +∫_0 ^∞   (1/n) u^n  e^(−u)  du = (1/n) A_(n+1)  ⇒  A_(n+1) =n A_n   ⇒ Π_(k=1) ^(n−1)  A_(k+1) =(n−1)! Π_(k=1) ^(n−1)  A_k   ⇒ A_n  = (n−1)! A_1 =(n−1)! ⇒  L{ ((x^(n−1)  e^(−ax) )/((n−1)!))} =  (1/((a+x)^n )) ⇒  L^(−1)  ((1/((x+a)^n ))) = ((x^(n−1)  e^(−ax) )/((n−1)!)) .
