  4. Option D:
    Option D figure

Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

Given logic circuit

The left gate is an OR gate, so its output is (A + B). The upper branch contains a NOT gate, giving output A. Both outputs are applied to the final OR gate.

Boolean expression:

Y=(A+B)+A‾Y = (A + B) + \overline{A}

Simplification:

Y=A+A‾+B=1+B=1Y = A + \overline{A} + B = 1 + B = 1

Truth table:

A & B & Y \\ \hline 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \end{array}$$ Correct option = B
