The impulse response $$h\left[ n \right]$$ of a linear time-invariant system is given by $$h\left[ n \right]$$ $$ = u\left[ {n + 3} \right] + u\left[ {n - 2} \right] - 2\,u\left[ {n - 7} \right],$$ where $$u\left[ n \right]$$ is the unit step sequence. The above system is

A sequence $$x\left( n \right)$$ with the $$z$$-transform $$X\left( z \right)$$ $$ = {z^4} + {z^2} - 2z + 2 - 3{z^{ - 4}}$$ is applied as an input to a linear, time-invariant system with the impulse response $$h\left( n \right) = 2\delta \left( {n - 3} \right)$$
where $$\matrix{ {\delta \left( n \right) = 1,} & {n = 0} \cr {0,} & {otherwise} \cr } $$

The output at $$n = 4$$ is
