I’ve attached a photo to the question and my working.
The answer is supposedly suppose to be:
(s+3)L{V}-6-26/(s^2+4)

You want find the Laplace Transform of dvdt+3v13sin(2t)\displaystyle \frac{dv}{dt}+ 3v- 13sin(2t)
Yes, the Laplace Transform is "linear" so you can take the Laplace transform of each part:
Letting the Laplace Transform of v be "V" the Laplace transform of dvdt\displaystyle \frac{dv}{dt} is sVv(0)=sV6\displaystyle sV- v(0)= sV- 6.

The Laplace Transform of 13sin(2t)\displaystyle -13 sin(2t) is (either using a table of Laplace transforms or by actually doing the integration by parts twice) 132s2+4=26s2+4\displaystyle -13\frac{2}{s^2+ 4}= \frac{-26}{s^2+ 4}.

So the Laplace Transform of dvdt+3v13sin(2t)\displaystyle \frac{dv}{dt}+ 3v- 13sin(2t) is
sV6+3V26s2+4\displaystyle sV- 6+ 3V- \frac{26}{s^2+ 4}.

In your solution, you appear to have L(3v)=3L(v)=3s2\displaystyle L(3v)= 3L(v)= \frac{3}{s^2}. Since, in your notation, you are using "V" to represent the Laplace transform of v, the Laplace transform of 3v is just 3V. I suspect you used the Laplace transform of independent variable, "t", not the dependent variable, "v".
