A. True
B. False

If h(n) is the impulse response of the single input single output system, and h1(n) is the impulse response of the transposed system, then we know that h(n)=h1>(n).

D. None of the mentioned

A number λ is an Eigenvalue of F and a nonzero vector U is the associated Eigenvector if
FU=λU
Thus, we obtain (F-λI)U=0.

21. The determinant |F-λI|=0 yields the characteristic polynomial of the matrix F.

A. True
B. False

We know that (F-λI)U=0
The above equation has a nonzero solution U if the matrix F-λI is singular, which is the case if the determinant of (F-λI) is zero. That is, |F-λI|=0.

This determinant yields the characteristic polynomial of the matrix F.
