Question

What is y after executing the statements? x = 4; y = x 1; x = 3; y = y * 2;

a. 6
b. 8
c. 10
d. 12

Answer 1

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's why:

Initially, the value of x is set to 4, and then the value of y is set to x+1, which means y is 5.

Next, the value of x is changed to 3.

Finally, the value of y is multiplied by 2, so y is now 8 (i.e., 5 * 2).

Therefore, the final value of y is 8 after executing the statements.
