Question: Consider the function (a) Use a Karnaugh map to find a minimum cost sum-of-products (SOP) expression for f. (b) Find a minimum cost SOP expression

Consider the functionf(x1,x4)=(x1 x3) + (x1x3 + x1x3)x4 +12

(a) Use a Karnaugh map to find a minimum cost sum-of-products (SOP) expression for

f.

(b) Find a minimum cost SOP expression for F, which is the complement of

f. Then, complement (using de Morgan's rule) this SOP expression to find an expression for

f. The resulting expression will be in the product-of-sums (POS) form. Compare its cost with the SOP expression derived in Part

a. Can you draw any general conclusions from this result?LO1 

f(x1,x4)=(x1 x3) + (x1x3 + x1x3)x4 +12
