Problems............................................................................................
For the problems requiring implementation in MATLAB, write scripts or functions to solve them
numerically or symbolically. Label the axes of the plots, give a title, and uselegendto identify dif-
ferent signals in a plot. To save space usesubplotto put several plots into one. To do the problem
numerically, sample analog signals with a smallTs.
