Section 1:
1. Task 1
Stage 1 of the circuit involves three gates NR2, AN2 and OR2. The input of NR2 is A and B`. The output of NR2 would be (A+B`)` which is equivalent to (A`+B). The input of AN2 is A and B` and its output is A.B`. The input of OR2 is A and B` and its output would be A+B`. In the next stage of the circuit, NR2 is present and its input is (A`+B) and A.B`. The output of this gate would be ((A`+B)+(A.B`))`. In the third stage of the system, ND2 is present and the input is x and y where x is ((A`+B)+(A.B`))` and y is (A+B`). The final output of the concerned gate would be (x.y)` which is denoted by Z. Based on the calculations performed using the properties of a boolean expression, the table below provides the view of the truth table for the concerned circuit.

2. Task 2
The input given to the first AND gate is A` and B and its output would be A`.B. The input given to the second AND gate is A, C` and D and therefore, its output would be A.C`.D. The input given to the third AND gate is A, B` and C which in turn would generate the output as A.B`.C. All these outputs are applied to the OR gate present in the circuit and therefore, the output of the gate is (A`.B) + (A.C`.D) + (A.B`.C). This is the required sum of products that can be generated on the basis of the inputs that have been applied.
3. Task 3
2x1 + 6x2 + 4x3 = 18…….1
5x1 + 6x2 + 4x3 = 24……..2
-2x1 + x2 + 3x3 = 3……..3
From equation 1, the value of x3 can be calculated as
x3 = (18 - 2x1 - 6x2) /4 ……..4
Putting the value of x3 in equation 2 and 3, we get,
5x1 + 6x2 + 4*(18-2x1-6x2)/4 = 24
5x1 + 6x2 + 18-2x1-6x2 = 24
3x1 = 24-18 = 6
x1 = 6/2 = 3
Putting the value of x1 in equation 1 and 3, we get,
2*3 + 6x2 + 4x3 = 18 [Equation 1]
6x2 + 4x3 = 12………5
-2*3 + x2 +x3 = 3 [Equation 3]
x2 + x3 = 9……..6
By solving the equations 5 and 6, the values of x2 and x3 are -12 and 21 respectively. Therefore, the values of x1, x2 and x3 are
x1 = 3, x2 = -12 and x3 = 21
4. Task 4
The total price of the mobile phone and smartwatch = £ 1,250
Consider the cost of the smartwatch to be x, therefore, the cost of the mobile would be 3x.
- a) The expression to show the total cost in terms of the cost of the smartwatch is given below.
x + 3x = 1250…….1
- b) Solving equation 1, we get,
x = 1250/4 = 312.5
Therefore, the cost of the smartwatch is £ 312.5 and for the mobile, the cost is 312.5*3 which is equivalent to £ 937.5.
- c) VAT rate for the mobile phone is 14%, therefore, VAT charged on the customer is
VAT = (14/100)*937.5 = £ 131.25
5. Task 5
The values of the variables given in the given equation are t1 = 2.6, t2 = 0.45, A = 15.6, a = 12.57/144 , g = 32.2, h1 = 36 and h2 = 25. Putting the values of the above variables in the equation, the value of k can be calculated as follows,
2.6 - 0.45 = (2*15.6)/ 0.0872 (√(1+k)/2*32.2)(√36 - √25)
2.15 = (31.2)/0.0872 (√(1+k)/64.4)(6-5)
2.15 = 357.79(√(1+k)/64.4)
√(1+k)/64.4 = 0.006
(1+k)/64.4 = 0.000036
1+k = 0.0023
k = 0.0023 - 1 = -0.9977
Therefore, the value of k comes out to be -0.9977.
6. Task 6
