CLO1: Apply basic knowledge of signals and systems to categorize, and perform basic operations
on, signals and systems.

Problem 1 [CLO1] [ 0.5+0.5+1+1 Points]

Solve each part as directed.
(a) Given x (t )=u ( t )−3 u(t−3), plot x (t) and x (2 t).
(b) Given even function x (t) and odd function y (t ), determine whether

x (t)+ y (t )
g ( t )=

Is even, odd, or neither.

(c) Determine whether the given signal k ( t )=e− j 3t +e j 15 t Is periodic or not. If it is periodic,
find the period.
(d) Simplify
∞ ∞ ∞
x (t )= ∫ cos (ωt )δ ( t−3 ) dt+∫ t δ ( t+3 ) dt+ ∫ sin (ωt )δ ( t−3 ) dt

(b) The signal fails both x (t )=x (−t) and x (t )=−x (−t) tests, and is therefore, neither even, nor
odd.

(c) Both terms are periodic with periods
