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} $ 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] $
