Practice Question on Computing the Output of an LTI system by Convolution
The unit impulse response h[n] of a DT LTI system is
$ h[n]= \frac{1}{5^n}u[n]. \ $
Use convolution to compute the system's response to the input
$ x[n]= u[n] \ $

Answer 1
$ y[n]=h[n]*x[n]=\sum_{k=-\infty}^\infty \frac{1}{5^k}u[k]u[n-k]=\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{1}{5^k}u[n-k]=\Bigg( \sum_{k=0}^n \frac{1}{5^k} \Bigg)u[n] $
I'm not totally sure that this is the way to compute this sum...
$ y[n]=\Bigg(\frac{1-(1/5)^{n+1}}{1-(1/5)}\Bigg)u[n] $
