Tutorial-4
Question 1 Consider a system with input x(t) and y(t) given by y(t) = x(t) δ(t − nT ).
P∞
−∞

a) Is this system linear?

b) Is this system time-invariant?
Question 2 Consider the cascade of two systems with impulse responses h(t) and g(t) as shown
in Figure 1.
(a) If both the systems are causal, show that the overall system is causal.
(b) If both the system are stable, show that the overall system is stable.
