Answer: Statements (i), (ii), and (iv) are true.

Explanation:

  • (i) An all-pass filter passes through all frequencies unchanged, but can change the phase of the signal: This is true. An all-pass filter is designed to allow all frequencies to pass through with the same gain, but it can alter the phase of the signal.
  • (ii) If the FIR filter coefficients are symmetric, then it has linear phase: This is true. Symmetric FIR filter coefficients (either even or odd symmetry) result in a linear phase response, which means that all frequency components of the input signal are delayed by the same amount.
  • (iii) FIR filter is computationally more efficient than an IIR filter of comparable performance: This is generally false. FIR filters typically require more coefficients (and thus more computations) than IIR filters to achieve the same level of performance, especially in terms of sharpness of the filter response.
  • (iv) A filter that does not operate in real-time can be non-causal: This is true. Non-causal filters can use future input values to compute the current output, which is possible when the filter does not need to operate in real-time.

A game is said to be fair if the expected value (after considering the cost) is 0. This means that in the long run, both the player and the “house” would expect to win nothing. If the value is positive, the game is in your favor. If the value is negative, the game is not in your favor. At a carnival, you pay $1 to choose a card from a standard deck. If you choose a red card, you double your money, but if you pick a black card, you do not get any. (A standard deck of cards has 52 cards. 26 of the cards are red.)

Calculating tax incidence Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge cola consumers a tax. Before the tax, 10,000 cases of cola were sold every week at a price of $5 per case. After the tax, 3,000 cases of cola are sold every week; consumers pay $8 per case (including the tax), and producers receive $3 per case. 1) The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $??? per case. 2) Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $??? per case, and the burden that falls on producers is ???$ per case. 3) True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been the same as if the tax had been levied on producers.
