What is the total transfer function for two systems in series, G1(s) and G2(s)?
💡 Hint: Think about multiplying the transfer functions.
In parallel connections, how do we derive the total transfer function?
💡 Hint: This is about adding the functions together.

You have a system with G1(s) = 10 and G2(s) = 5 in series, and G3(s) in parallel where G3(s) = 2. Calculate G_total(s).
💡 Hint: Calculate the series connection first, then add the parallel one.
For a system with G(s) = 3 and feedback H(s) = 1/3, calculate the closed-loop transfer function.
💡 Hint: Make sure to plug both values into the feedback formula correctly.
