The initial rest assumption corresponds to a zero-valued auxiliary condition being imposed at a time determined in accordance with the input signal. In this problem we show that if the auxiliary condition used is nonzero or if it is always applied at a fixed time (regardless of the input signal) the corresponding system cannot be LTI. Consider a system whose input x (t) and output y (t) satisfy the first-order differential equation (P2.33-1).

(a) Given the auxiliary condition y(1) = 1, use a counterexample to show that the system is not linear.

(b) Given the auxiliary condition y(1) = 1, use a counterexample to show that the system is not time invariant.

(c) Given the auxiliary condition y(1) = 1, show that the system is incrementally linear.

(d) Given the auxiliary condition y(1) = 0, show that the system is linear but not time invariant.

(e) Given the auxiliary condition y(0) + y(4) = 0, show that the system is linear but not time invariant.
