Question 3 /7

For a system we observe that

• For an input x(t ) = e −t u (t − 1) the output is y (t ) = 5e −2t u (t − 5)


• For another input x(t ) = 2e −(t −1)u (t − 2) + 3e −(t − 4)u (t − 5) we have the output
y (t ) = 10e −2(t −1)u (t − 6) + 15e −2(t − 4)u (t − 9)

Based on the observation


a) Determine if the system is LTI or not. Justify your answer.
b) If the system is causal or not? Justify.
c) If the system is stable or not? Justify.
