WGU Courses and Certificates Scripting-and-Programming-Foundations Question # 21 Topic 3 Discussion

A. X + 2 / 10:

First, calculate 2 / 10, which is 0.2.

Then add x (17.0) to 0.2, resulting in 17.2. This does not equal 3.7.

B. (2 + x) / 10.0:

First, add 2 and x (17.0), which gives 19.0.

Then divide 19.0 by 10.0, resulting in 3.7.

C. X + 2.0 / 10:

First, calculate 2.0 / 10, which is 0.2.

Then add x (17.0) to 0.2, resulting in 17.2. This does not equal 3.7.

D. 2 + x / 10:

First, divide x (17.0) by 10, which gives 1.7.

Then add 2 to 1.7, resulting in 3.7.

Therefore, option B is the correct expression.
