Logic Levels
In a negative-logic circuit, what level is used to represent a logic 0?
In a negative-logic circuit, what level is used to represent a logic 0?
High level.
In positive logic, 1 is high level while 0 is low. But, in negative logic it is reversed, with 1 being low, and 0 being high. Analysis of logic circuits starts with the assumption on whether it is a positive or negative logic.

For the logic input levels shown in Figure 3E12, what are the logic levels of test points A, B and C in this circuit? (Assume positive logic.)

(Assume positive logic.)
A is low, B is high and C is high.
Please notice that the path from either H(igh) is not clear, thus A is low. On the other hand, the opposite is for B, and C is high.
From sammylandler:
The answer to this truth table is found by finding the output of each symbol. Each output will go into the next input. In this problem, each of these truth table symbols are NAND gates.
See Wikipedia's article Truth table a NAND gate is defined as follows:
"The logical NAND is an operation on two logical values, typically the values of two propositions, that produces a value of false if both of its operands are true. In other words, it produces a value of true if at least one of its operands is false."
The L and H values indicate LOW and HIGH logic states.

Given the input levels shown in Figure 3E14 and assuming positive logic devices, what would the output be?

What is a truth table?
What is a truth table?
A list of input combinations and their corresponding outputs that characterizes a digital device function.
From kj6prf:
A truth table simply lists all of the possible digital inputs and their corresponding outputs.
For example,
0 0 = 0
0 1 = 0
1 0 = 0
1 1 = 1
is a simple truth table for the AND operation.
See Wikipedia's article on Truth table
For more information, please see the Britannica site for the article truth table
