Use the devices in Figures 1 and 2 to answer the questions given that the input variables X and Y have values of 0011 and 0101 respectively as shown in Table 1.

If the input variable X in Figure 1 is passed through the device in Figure 2 before going into the logic gate in Figure 1, what will be the value of the output Z? 

0111
1011
1101
1110

Explanation

D: (1110)

The gate in figure 2 is a NOT gate that inverse the input. It gives 1 when the input is 0 and vice-versa.

  • For input X =  0011,

when it passes through the NOT gate, it becomes 1100

  • For input Y = 0101,

When it passes through the NOT gate, it becomes 1010
