For some integer q every odd integer is of the form :


  1. q

  2. q+1

  3. 2q

  4. 2q+1

Open in App
Solution

The correct option is D

2q+1


Let, an integer is represented as q.

When q is an odd integer,

Suppose q=5 then (a),(d) are correct because 5 is already odd and 2q+1=11is also odd.

When qis an even integer,

Suppose q=6 then (b), (d) are correct because,

q+1=72q+1=13

Therefore. It is clear from both cases (d) is the only option that is every odd integer is of the form since options a,b,andc are incorrect.

Hence, the correct answer is option (d),(2q+1).
