Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given the function X(s) = (5s + 7)/((s - 3)(s + 4)), apply the PFE method to find the time-domain representation after finding K1 and K2.

💡 Hint: Make sure to write it as a summation of time functions.

Challenge 2 Hard

Evaluate the coefficients for X(s) = (2s^2 + 3)/(s^2 - s - 2) using both cover-up and cross-multiplication methods.

💡 Hint: Watch for simplifications in the two approaches.
