Errata:
• At 03:33 I say “differential equation” instead of “system equation”. While it is true that for this problem the system equation is a differential equation, The first step should be specified to be about the system equation and not the output equation. I make a note of this mistake on screen.
• I forgot to draw the input arrow for the gain block containing 6 drawn at 08:16. It should be easy to determine the direction of this signal, but the arrow should be drawn nonetheless. I make a note of this mistake on screen.

I have read this section in my textbook 5 times over trying to fully understand this concept. Only had to watch this video once. Thank you!
