2. Create the K-Maps and then simplify the following functions:

a) F(x,y,z) = xyz + xyz +xyz

b) F(x,y,z) = yz + yz +xyz

3. Assume we are using the simple model for floating-point representation as given in the text (the representation uses a 14-bit format, 5 bits for the exponent with a bias of 16, a normalized mantissa of 8-bits, and a single sign bit for the number): Show how the computer would represent the number 120.321 using this floating-point format.
