Correct answer: A

Correct matching: the correct associations and brief reasons are given below.

  • Absorption law: a + (a * b) = a — a OR (a AND b) simplifies to a because a already covers the cases where a is true.

  • Bounded law: a + 1 = 1 — OR with 1 (true) yields true.

  • Identity law: a + 0 = a — OR with 0 (false) leaves the original value unchanged.

  • Distributive law: a * (b + c) = (a*b) + (a*c) — multiplication distributes over addition.

Therefore the correct matching is: Absorption → a + (a*b) = a; Bounded → a + 1 = 1; Identity → a + 0 = a; Distributive → a * (b + c) = (a*b) + (a*c).
