The state-space representation of a system is given by $$\left[ {\matrix{ {\mathop {{X_1}}\limits^ \bullet } \cr {\mathop {{X_2}}\limits^ \bullet } \cr } } \right] = \left[ {\matrix{ { - 5} & 1 \cr { - 6} & 0 \cr } } \right]\left[ {\matrix{ {{x_1}} \cr {{x_2}} \cr } } \right].$$
Find the Laplace transform of the state transistion matrix. Find also the value of $${x_1}$$ at $$t=1$$ if $${x_1}\left( 0 \right) = 1$$ and $${x_2}\left( 0 \right) = 0.$$

Determine the transfer function of the system having the following state variable representation:
$$\eqalign{ & X = \left[ {\matrix{ 0 & 1 & 0 \cr 0 & 0 & 1 \cr { - 40} & { - 44} & { - 14} \cr } } \right]x + \left[ {\matrix{ 0 \cr 1 \cr 0 \cr } } \right]u \cr & y = \left[ {\matrix{ 0 & 1 & 0 \cr } } \right]x \cr} $$
