Basics of Linearity

Systems given:

$ e^{2jt} \to system \to t e^{-2jt} $

$ e^{-2jt} \to system \to t e^{2jt} $

The basic concept known from the systems given is:

$ x(t) \to system \to t x(-t) $

We know that

$ x(t) = cos(2t) = \frac{e^{2jt} + e^{-2jt}}{2} $.

So if we take the known system and apply it to the equation right above, the response will be:

$ \frac{te^{-2jt} + te^{2jt}}{2} = t \frac{e^{-2jt} + e^{2jt}}{2} $

Which is then equivalent to $ tcos(2t) $

The response to $ cos(2t) $ is $ tcos(2t) $.
