1.Easy
ab(¬b ∨ ¬a) → (b → a)11100100

Exactly one row of the truth table makes (¬b ∨ ¬a) → (b → a) false. Click that row.

(¬b ∨ ¬a) → (b → a)
  1. 1a = 1, b = 1
  2. 2a = 1, b = 0
  3. 3a = 0, b = 1
  4. 4a = 0, b = 0
2.Easy
pqq → ¬(p ∨ q)11?10?01?00?

Complete the truth table (1 = true, 0 = false). In how many rows N is q → ¬(p ∨ q) true?

q → ¬(p ∨ q)
N =
3.Medium
abc(¬a ∨ c) ↔ ba → c((¬a ∨ c) ↔ b) → (a → c)111?110?101?100?011?010?001?000?

In how many of the 8 rows of its truth table is ((¬a ∨ c) ↔ b) → (a → c) true? Call this number N.

((¬a ∨ c) ↔ b) → (a → c)
N =
4.Medium
