∽x∧∽z=∽(x∨z)  ∽y∧∽z=∽(y∨z)  (∽(y∨z))∨(∽(x∨z))=∽((y∨z)∧(x∨z))  =∽((y∧x)∨z)

$$\backsim{x}\wedge\backsim{z}=\backsim\left({x}\vee{z}\right) \\ $$$$\backsim{y}\wedge\backsim{z}=\backsim\left({y}\vee{z}\right) \\ $$$$\left(\backsim\left({y}\vee{z}\right)\right)\vee\left(\backsim\left({x}\vee{z}\right)\right)=\backsim\left(\left({y}\vee{z}\right)\wedge\left({x}\vee{z}\right)\right) \\ $$$$=\backsim\left(\left({y}\wedge{x}\right)\vee{z}\right) \\ $$$$ \\ $$
