# Finding the stability of the system [closed]

Determine whether the system $h(n)=nu(n)$ is BIBO stable or not.

I have solved it and got it as unstable as $\displaystyle\sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty \lvert h(n)\rvert = \infty$. But the book ¹ is saying stable:

Which one is correct?

• Which book? Can you add a scan of that example (and its answer) to the question? – Matt L. Sep 3 '16 at 11:39

• The solution from the book contradicts itself, and proves it's unstable. Just a typo. – Marcus Müller Sep 3 '16 at 15:11
• I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it's just based on a typo in the book, with the correct statement given directly above the typo. Hence, this question holds no value for future readers. – Marcus Müller Sep 3 '16 at 15:12

$$\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}|h[n]|=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}n=\infty$$
