1. Find the values, if any, of the Boolean variable x that satisfy these equations.
a) x ・ 1 = 0
b) x + x = 0
c) x ・ 1 = x
d) x ・ x̅ = 1
10. Construct a circuit for a half subtractor using AND gates, OR gates, and inverters. A half subtractor
has two bits, x and y, as input and produces as output a difference bit, d, and a borrow, b.
Hint: First construct a table for d and b for the 4 possible combinations of x and y. Then derive the
Boolean functions for d and b.
