If you haven't seen these, I'd recommend them as a starting point:
http://mbed.org/handbook/mbed-NXP-LPC1768-Getting-Started
https://mbed.org/handbook/mbed-Compiler-Getting-Started
A shorter answer is to copy the downloaded binary to the mbed device - the mbed device should show up in the File Explorer window much like a USB memory stick, likely called "mbed" - and then reset the mbed. Again, refer to the getting started docs.
