0. If w, x, y, z are Boolean variables, then which one of the following is INCORRECT?

  • Option : C
  • Explanation :
    A)LHS: wx + w(x + y) + x(x+y) = x + wy
    RHS
    ⇒ wx + wx + wy + x + xy
    ⇒ wx + wy + x + xy [∵ xx = x]
    ⇒ x(w+y+1) + wy [∵1 + x = 1]
    ⇒ x + wy
    ⇒ L.H.S = R.H.S

    L.H.S ≠ R.H.S
    D) L.H.S.:(w + y)(wxy + wyz) = wxy + wyz
    (w + y)(wxy + wyz)
    wxy + wyz + wxy + wyz
    wxy + wyz
    L.H.S = R.H.S
