The question appears to be asking for the number of operations needed to express a simplified Boolean expression based on the given truth table. However, the provided table is not clear and seems to have formatting issues. To proceed, I will assume the table represents a truth table for a Boolean function with three variables (x, y, z).

Let's first try to interpret the table correctly:

\[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} x & y & z & f(x, y, z) \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 & 0 \\ \end{array} \]

From this table, we can derive the Boolean function \( f(x, y, z) \). Let's simplify it using Karnaugh maps or Boolean algebra.

First, let's write down the minterms where the function is 1:

• \( f(0, 1, 0) = 1 \)
• \( f(0, 1, 0) = 1 \) (repeated)
• \( f(0, 1, 1) = 1 \)
• \( f(1, 1, 0) = 1 \)
• \( f(1, 1, 0) = 1 \) (repeated)

The minterms are:

• \( \overline{x} y \overline{z} \)
• \( \overline{x} y z \)
• \( x y \overline{z} \)

Combining these minterms, we get: \[ f(x, y, z) = \overline{x} y \overline{z} + \overline{x} y z + x y \overline{z} \]

We can simplify this expression: \[ f(x, y, z) = y \overline{z} (\overline{x} + x) + \overline{x} y z \] \[ f(x, y, z) = y \overline{z} + \overline{x} y z \]

Now, let's count the operations:

• 1 OR operation (between \( y \overline{z} \) and \( \overline{x} y z \))
• 1 AND operation (for \( y \overline{z} \))
• 1 AND operation (for \( \overline{x} y z \))
• 2 NOT operations (for \( \overline{z} \) and \( \overline{x} \))

So, the total number of operations is:

• 1 OR
• 2 AND
• 2 NOT

However, the provided options do not match this count exactly. The closest match is: 1 OR, 1 AND, 2 NOT

Therefore, the answer is: The answer is the first one: 1 OR, 1 AND, 2 NOT
