Correct answer
Why this answer is correct
Given signal y(t) and x(t) is shown in figure below,
Given: z(t) = x(t)*y(t) = \(\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} y(τ) x(t-τ) d τ\)
x(t - τ) can be plotted as shown below,
Maximum value of convolution will be obtained when positive portion of y(τ) is multiplied with x(t - τ)
∴ 1 + t = 5
t = 4 sec
At t = 4 sec, maximum value of convolution will be obtained.
