Answer 1

$ \mathcal X (\omega) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty (u[n+1]-u[n-2])e^{-j\omega n}=\sum_{n=-1}^2 e^{-j\omega n}= $

$ \mathcal X (\omega) = e^{j\omega}+1+e^{-j\omega}+e^{-j2\omega} $

TA's comments: You have a small mistake in that. Note that $ u[n-2] $ starts at $ n=2 $ and not $ n=3 $.

Answer 2

So it should be like this.

$ \mathcal X (\omega) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty (u[n+1]-u[n-2])e^{-j\omega n}=\sum_{n=-1}^1 e^{-j\omega n}= $

$ \mathcal X (\omega) = e^{j\omega}+1+e^{-j\omega} $
