Re-stating the question: What types of questions do Boolean functions answer?

Observing the given data, there are no answer options provided to evaluate. Without a list of possible types to compare against, we cannot systematically assess which statements would be correct or incorrect for this specific item. In a typical multiple-choice setup, you would weigh each option against the core concept of Boolean functions.

General concept (useful for context): A Boolean function outputs a truth value (true/false) given a set of Boolean inputs. Consequently, Boolean functions can address yes/no style questions about logical relationships, conditions, and propositions expressed in Boolean logic. Classic examples include questions about conjunction (AND), disjunction (OR), negation (NOT), implication (IF…THEN), equivalence (IF AND ONLY IF), and more complex compositions built from these primitives. They can also be used to decide satisfiability (is there an input assignment making the function true?), tautology checks (is the function always true?), and other logical properties.

Why the lack of options matters: Since the answer options are missing, we cannot determine which statements would be considered correct or incorrect in this item. If options were present, we would:
- Identify statements that correctly describe the scope of questions a Boolean function can answer (e.g., yes/no questions about logical structures, outcomes of logical expressions).
- Identify statements that incorrectly claim, for example, that Boolean functions can answer non-Boolean or numerical questions, or that they capture only a single trivial type of question.
- Provide distinctions between basic Boolean operations and more complex properties derived from Boolean functions (like satisfiability and tautology) to clarify common misconceptions.

In summary, with no answer options available, the correct evaluation hinges on the actual statements proposed. If you can provide the missing options, I can analyze each one in detail and explain why each is correct or incorrect.
