Final answer:

If a literary work is in the public domain, you may sell and distribute it without violating any copyright rules.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer, we need to analyze the given statements. Let's start by identifying the simple statements and assigning a letter to each. The simple statements are: Reproduce the work in copies or phonorecords, Prepare derivative works based upon the work, Distribute copies or phonorecords of the work to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership or by rental, lease, or lending.

Perform the work publicly if it is a literary, musical, dramatic, or choreographic work; a pantomime; or a motion picture or other audiovisual work. Now we can rewrite the compound statement by replacing each simple statement with the assigned letter: (a) AND (b) AND (c) AND (d).Finally, we can translate the compound statement by starting from the left to the right using the appropriate letters and operator symbols: a AND b AND c AND d.
