If impulse response is h [n] then

y [ n ] = h [ n] * x [ n]
Length of convolution (y [n]) is 0 to 4, x [n] is of length 0 to 1 so length of h [n]
will be 0 to 3.
Let h [n] = {a, b, c, d}
-
Convolution
y [n] = {a, - a + b, - b + c, - c + d, - d}

By comparing
a =1
-a + b = 0 & b = a = 1
-b + c = 0 & c = b = 1
-c + d = 0 & d = c = 1
So, h [n] = {1, 1, 1, 1}

X (z) = 4z - 3 + 3z - 1 + 2 - 6z2 + 2z3
Transfer function of the system

Output
Y (z) = H (z) X (z)
Y (z) = (3z - 1 - 2) (4z - 3 + 3z - 1 + 2 - 6z2 + 2z3)
