On computing the inverse z-transform of a discrete-time signal.
Compute the inverse z-transform of
$ X(z) =\frac{1}{3-z}, \quad \text{ROC} \quad |z|<3 $.
(Write enough intermediate steps to fully justify your answer.)

Answer 1
$ X[z] = \sum_{n=0}^{+\infty} 3^{-1-n} z^{n} $
$ = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[n] 3^{-1-n} z^{n} $
NOTE: Let n=-k
$ = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[-k] 3^{-1+k} z^{-k} $ (compare with $ \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} x[n] z^{-k} $)
$ = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[-k] 3^{-1+k} z^{-k} $
Therefore, $ x[n]= 3^{-1+n} u[-n] $
Answer 2
$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3-z} = \frac{1}{3} \frac{1}{1-\frac{z}{3}} $
$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[n] (\frac{z}{3})^n $
Let n = -k
$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[-k]3^{k}z^{-k} $
By comparison with the x-transform formula,
$ x[n] = 3^{n-1} u[-n] $
Answer 3
Write it here.
Answer 4
