A second order LTI system is described by the following state equations
\[\frac{{\rm{d}}}{{{\rm{dt}}}}\] x1(t) - x2(t) = 0
\[\frac{{\rm{d}}}{{{\rm{dt}}}}\] x2(t) + 2x1(t) + 3x2(t) = r(t)
where x1(t) and x2(t) are the two state variables and r(t) denotes the input. The output c(t) = x1(t).
The system is
A. undamped (oscillatory)
B. underdamped
C. critically damped
D. overdamped
