If the input and output of a causal LTI system satisfy the difference equation

y[n] = ay[n − 1] + x[n],

then the impulse response of the system must be h[n] = anu[n].

(a) For what values of a is this system stable?

(b) Consider a causal LTI system for which the input and output are related by the difference equation

y[n] = ay[n − 1] + x[n] − aNx[n N],

where N is a positive integer. Determine and sketch the impulse response of this system. Hint: Use linearity and time-invariance to simplify the solution.

(c) Is the system in part (b) an FIR or an IIR system? Explain.

(d) For what values of a is the system in part (b) stable? Explain.
