Question

1) Mark ALL the statements that will leave n larger by 2 in MATLAB:

Group of answer choices n = n + 2 , n + 2, n += 2 , n =+ 2

2) Mark ALL the statements that will leave n larger by 2 in C++

Group of answer choices

n = n + 2

n + 2

n += 2

n =+ 2

Answer 1

In MATLAB, 'n = n + 2' will increase 'n' by 2. In C++, both 'n = n + 2' and 'n += 2' are correct statements that will increase 'n' by 2. The '+=' operator is not valid in MATLAB, and '=+' is not valid in C++.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which statements in MATLAB and C++ will increase the value of a variable n by 2, we should look at valid syntax and operations in these programming languages.

MATLAB:

• n = n + 2: This statement will increase n by 2. It assigns the value of n plus 2 back to n.
• n += 2: This is not a valid operation in MATLAB. In MATLAB, the += operator does not exist, so this will return an error.
• n =+ 2: This statement is incorrect and a potential typographical error. The correct syntax would be n = n + 2.

C++:

• n = n + 2: This statement will also increase n by 2 in C++. It assigns the sum back to the variable n.
• n += 2: The += operator is a compound assignment that adds the value 2 to n and assigns the result back to n.
• n =+ 2: This is not valid C++ syntax for incrementing the value. It is likely a typo or misunderstanding of the += operator.
