possible toss can result in a tail (represented by 1) or a head (represented by 0). Let the logical variables X, Y, Z represent the outcomes of the toss corresponding to the first, second and third coin respectively. Sam wants to implement a particular logic function F. It is known that F(X,Y,Z) is 1 if exactly one coin or none of the coins results in a tail. Express F as:

Question

Sam has a set of three coins. Each possible toss can result in a tail (represented by 1) or a head (represented by 0). Let the logical variables X, Y, Z represent the outcomes of the toss corresponding to the first, second and third coin respectively. Sam wants to implement a particular logic function F. It is known that F(X,Y,Z) is 1 if exactly one coin or none of the coins results in a tail. Express F as:

1)as a minterm expansion.

2)as a maxterm expansion.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Here first we need to write the truth table

F=1 when only one of X,Y,Z is 1 or all are 0.

The truth table is

X Y Z F
0 0 0 1
0 0 1 1
0 1 0 1
0 1 1 0
1 0 0 1
1 0 1 0
1 1 0 0
1 1 1 0
