Problem

A linear system’s response to $ e^{2jt} $ is $ te^{-2jt} $, and its response to $ e^{-2jt} $ is $ te^{2jt} $. What is the system’s response to $ cos(2t) $?

Solution

If the system is linear, then the following is true:

For any $ x_{1}(t) \; \rightarrow \; y_{1}(t) $ and $ x_{2}(t) \; \rightarrow \; y_{2}(t) $ and any complex constants $ a $ and $ b $

then

$ ax_{1}(t)+bx_{2}(t)\rightarrow $
