Question

This is a part of a review I'm studying, NOT a graded assignment, please do not reject. Thank you!

Am I doing this problem right? I would like someone to verify I'm doing this correctly, thank you!

I understand that there are multiple questions here, but I've already answered some of them and most are very simple problems, I appreciate your understanding! 

**Title: Application of Mason's Rule to Determine the Transfer Function**

This educational content explores how to find the transfer function \( T(s) = \frac{Y(s)}{R(s)} \) using Mason's rule. Below is the detailed transcription and explanation of the given calculations.

---

**1. Problem Statement:**

Find the transfer function, \( T(s) = \frac{Y(s)}{R(s)} \), using Mason's rule.

**2. Variables Defined:**
   - **a)** Number of forward paths, \( K \)
   - **b)** Single loop gains
   - **c)** \(\Delta\)
   - **d)** \(\Delta_k\)
   - **e)** \( T(s) \)

---

**3. Signal Flow Graph:**

The signal flow graph is shown above, illustrating paths and loops with their respective gains.

**4. Detailed Steps:**

**a) Number of forward paths, \( K = 3 \)**

**b) Single Loop Gains:**
   \[
   L_1 = -\frac{3}{s+1} \quad (forward)
   \]
   \[
   L_2 = -\frac{5}{s+1} \quad (forward)
   \]

**c) Calculation of \(\Delta\):**
   \[
   \Delta = 1 - (L_1 + L_2) = 1 - \left(\frac{-9s}{s+3s+2}\right) = \frac{15s + 4}{s^2 + 3s + 2}
   \]

**d) Calculation of \(\Delta_k\):**
   - \(\Delta_1 = \Delta_2 = \Delta_3 = 1\)

**e) Transfer Function \( T(s) \) Calculation:**
   \[
   T = \frac{Y_R}{\Delta} = \frac{P_1 \Delta_1 + P_2 \Delta_2 + P_3 \Delta_3}{\Delta}
   \]
   where:
   \[
   P_1 = \frac{3s}{s^2 + 3s + 2}
   \]
   \[
   P_2 = \frac{-4}{s + 1}
   \]
   \[
   P_3 = 6
