Problem 4

A linear is system is a system that given two valid inputs:

$ x_1(t) $
$ x_2(t) $

with respective outputs:

$ y_1(t) = H { x_1(t) } $
$ y_2(t) = H { x_2(t) } $

will satisfy the equation

$ \alpha y_1(t) + \beta y_2(t) = H { \alpha x_1(t) + \beta x_2(t) } $

for any $ \alpha $ and $ \beta $.
