Under the supervision of:

Prof. Dr. Basil Hamed
Part one
Refer to the text book "Linear system and Signal "
- Read Chapter 1.
- Solve the following questions.
o 1.4.2 - 1.4.3 – 1.4.4 – 1.5.8

Part two
Solve the following problems:
1. Sketch the following functions

c. x(t) = exp(-t)u(t)
d. x(t) = 2u(t) + 𝛿𝛿(𝑡𝑡 − 1)

2. Sketch the integral of:

x(t) = u(t+2) – 2u(t+1) + 2u(t) – u(t-2) – 2u(t-3) + 2u(t-4)
