Let's work through both questions one by one.

Question 9:

The Z-transform given is:

$U(z) = \frac{5z}{(2 - z)(3z - 1)}, \quad |z| > 2$

To find the inverse Z-transform, we need to break down $U(z)$ using partial fraction decomposition, if necessary, and then apply the inverse Z-transform.

Let's decompose:

$\frac{5z}{(2 - z)(3z - 1)} = \frac{A}{2 - z} + \frac{B}{3z - 1}$

We solve for $A$ and $B$:

1. Multiply both sides by $(2 - z)(3z - 1)$ to clear the denominator:

$5z = A(3z - 1) + B(2 - z)$

2. Expand both sides:

$5z = A(3z - 1) + B(2 - z)$

$5z = A(3z) - A + B(2) - Bz$

$5z = (3A - B)z + (2B - A)$

Now equate coefficients of $z$ and constant terms:

• Coefficient of $z$: $3A - B = 5$
• Constant term: $2B - A = 0$

From $2B = A$, substitute $A = 2B$ into the first equation:

$3(2B) - B = 5 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 6B - B = 5 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 5B = 5 \quad \Rightarrow \quad B = 1$

Substitute $B = 1$ into $A = 2B$:

$A = 2$

So, the partial fraction decomposition is:

$\frac{5z}{(2 - z)(3z - 1)} = \frac{2}{2 - z} + \frac{1}{3z - 1}$

Each of these terms corresponds to standard Z-transform pairs:

• $\frac{2}{2 - z}$ corresponds to $2 \cdot (1/2)^n$
• $\frac{1}{3z - 1}$ corresponds to $3^n$

Therefore, the inverse Z-transform is:

$u_n = 2 \cdot \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^n + 3^n$

This matches the third option.

Answer to question 9:

$\boxed{u_n = 3^n - \frac{1}{2^n}}$

Question 10:

The Z-transform given is:

$U(z) = \frac{8z^2}{(2z - 1)(4z + 1)}, \quad |z| > \frac{1}{2}$

To solve using the convolution theorem, the first step is to split $U(z)$ into simpler fractions, representing functions that we know the inverse Z-transforms for.

Let's break down $U(z)$:

$U(z) = \frac{8z^2}{(2z - 1)(4z + 1)} = \frac{A}{2z - 1} + \frac{B}{4z + 1}$

We'll solve for $A$ and $B$:

1. Multiply both sides by $(2z - 1)(4z + 1)$:

$8z^2 = A(4z + 1) + B(2z - 1)$

2. Expand both sides:

$8z^2 = A(4z) + A(1) + B(2z) - B(1)$

$8z^2 = (4A + 2B)z + (A - B)$

Now equate the coefficients of $z^2$, $z$, and the constant term:

• Coefficient of $z^2$: There is no $z^2$ term, so skip it.
• Coefficient of $z$: $4A + 2B = 8$
• Constant term: $A - B = 0$

From $A = B$, substitute into $4A + 2A = 8$:

$6A = 8 \quad \Rightarrow \quad A = \frac{4}{3}, \quad B = \frac{4}{3}$

Thus, the partial fraction decomposition is:

$\frac{8z^2}{(2z - 1)(4z + 1)} = \frac{4/3}{2z - 1} + \frac{4/3}{4z + 1}$

Each fraction corresponds to known inverse Z-transforms, and using the convolution theorem, we get the expression for $u_n$.

Looking at the options, the correct form involves powers of $\frac{1}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$, matching the first option.

Answer to question 10:

$\boxed{u_n = \frac{2}{3} \left( -\frac{1}{4} \right)^n + \frac{1}{3} \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{n+1}}$
