Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Explanation

The commutative law states P∧Q = Q∧P, matching item III. The distributive law states P∧(Q∨R) = (P∧Q)∨(P∧R), matching item I. De Morgan's law states ¬(P∨Q) = ¬P∧¬Q, matching item IV. The absorption (adsorption) law states P∧(P∨Q) = P, matching item II, giving the mapping A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II.
