Is this question "could be an even integer" means "it would not be an even integer every time but possibly become an even integer"?

What is even ?!

Luo Ning, are you serious about your question?

Odd numbers: 1,3,5,7,9.... Even numbers: 2,4,6,8,10... Got it?

Reply: if x=3 nd y=4 then it not satisfies

Yoshi, yes.

'Which of the following could be an even integer' - doesn't this mean pick on or more choices? That's how I read the question so looked at every answer. What's the trick here?

I guess my question more precisely is what language is used when multiple answers are required.

Hi Israel,
When more than one answer is possible, the problem will not just imply that, it will state it explicitly. For example, it might say, 'Select one or MORE answer choices.'

If x=5 nd y=4 it doesn't satisfy any of de equation

Hi Ashish,
The question is asking, 'which of the following expressions COULD be an even integer?'
So, we need only one pair of numbers that result in an even integer. All the answer choices could fail to be even for every other pair of numbers and still Choice A would be the answer since x = 1 and y = 2 makes it even.

The correct answer is apparently a typo. The given option for A is "3a + y/2". The answer implies that it should actually be "3x + y/2". Please correct these typographical errors so that those studying will not find these erroneous solutions and problems. Thank you!

Hi Rhonda, thanks for catching this one. Because of concerned people like you, we are doing an update today to correct this. We were changing the answer choices from static images to MathML and an error was made in the change.

Choice (a) was shown as +y/2 instead of 3x+y/2. Please correct. Thanks!

Reply: got it Ms Lau. Thanks so much.

Choice A still shows as +y/2

Assume X=3 and Y=2 then it is odd
