FIR Filter

An FIR filter is described by the difference equation

y[n] = 3x[n] + 2x[n-3] - 3x[n-5].

1.
Find the impulse repsonse h[n] of this filter and plot versus n.
2.
Let x[n] be the complex exponential signal

\begin{displaymath}x[n] = 3 \exp(j0.4\pi n - \pi/2) \;\; \mbox{for all $n$ }.
\end{displaymath}

Then it is possible to express the output in the form

\begin{displaymath}y[n] = A \exp(j 2\pi f n + \phi) \;\; \mbox{for all $n$ }.
\end{displaymath}

Determine numerical values for the parameters A, f, and $\phi$.
