Question: Solving ODE by Laplace transform

I am trying to recreate journal work for validating using another computer program so I am trying to use maple to solve the ODE, based on further research I found using laplace might be the best but I am having some trouble.

 

eq8:=d*(n(t)+C(t))/drho = -rho(t)/(l*alpha*K_c)

given the initial conditions of:

ICs:= n(0) = n_0, rho(0) = rho_0, C(0) = (beta-rho_0)*n_0/(l*lambda)

therefore: 

equation9 := dsolve({equation8, ICs}, {C(t), n(t)}, method = laplace)

 

Following this process I get the error: 

Error, (in dsolve) invalid initial condition

 

According to the journal work the solution I am looking for is: 

C(t)=-n(t)+(rho_0^2+rho(t)^2)/(2*l*alpha*K_c)+((Beta+l*lambda-rho_0)*n_0)/(l*lambda)

 

is there something that I'm doing wrong or missing? 

Any help would be greatly Appreciated!
