### Problem 2: Understanding an LTI System

Consider the Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) system defined by the equation:

\[ y[n] = 0.5y[n-1] + 2x[n] + x[n-1] \]

#### Q1. Is the System Stable? Causal?

- **Stability:** A system is stable if, for any bounded input, the output is also bounded. To determine this, check the system's impulse response or the bound on the coefficients.

- **Causality:** A system is causal if the output at any time depends only on past and present inputs and not on future inputs. This means \( y[n] \) should only depend on \( x[n], x[n-1], \dots \) and not on \( x[n+k] \) for \( k > 0 \).

#### Q2. Determine the Output Signal \( y[n] \)

Given the input \( x[n] = u[-n] \) where \( u[n] \) is the unit step sequence. The unit step sequence \( u[n] \) is defined as:

\[ u[n] = \begin{cases} 
1 & \text{if } n \geq 0 \\
0 & \text{if } n < 0 
\end{cases} \]

To find \( y[n] \), recall that the input sequence can be written as the sum of a causal sequence and an anticausal sequence. You will need to:

1. Establish the expression for \( x[n] \).
2. Derive the output \( y[n] \) using the given system equation.

### Detailed Explanation for Q2:

1. **Write the Input Sequence:**
   \[ x[n] = u[-n] = \begin{cases} 
   1 & \text{if } n \leq 0 \\
   0 & \text{if } n > 0 
   \end{cases} \]

2. **Determine the Output Sequence:** Using the recursion formula given by the system,
   \[ y[n] = 0.5y[n-1] + 2x[n] + x[n-1] \]
   substitute \( x[n] \) and solve iteratively for \( y[n] \).

#### Notes:

- Calculations or further steps to derive \( y[n] \) will
