4. Prove the following properties of Boolean algebras a. x + (x · y) = x b. x · (x + y) = x c. (x + y) · (x' + y) = y d. (x · y) + (x' · y) = y e. x + y' = x + (x' · y + x · y)' f. x · y · (x · z)' = x · y · z' g. x · y' + x' · y = (x + y) · (x · y)'

Prove the following properties of Boolean algebras: Give a reason for each step: a. (x + y) + (y · x') = x + y b. (y + x) · (z + y) + x · z · (z + z') = y + x · z c. (y' · x) + x + (y + x) · y' = x + (y' · x)

Show that in a Boolean algebra, if $x \vee y=0$, then $x=0$ and $y=0$, and that if $x \wedge y=1$, then $x=1$ and $y=1$.
