The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the form of every odd integer based on the given integer `q`. We will analyze each option provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: We know that `q` is an integer. We need to find a mathematical expression that represents every odd integer. 2. **Identifying Odd Integers**: Odd integers can be expressed in the form of `2n + 1`, where `n` is any integer. This is because when you multiply an integer by 2, you get an even number, and adding 1 to it gives you an odd number. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: We have four options to analyze: - Option 1: `q` - Option 2: `q + 1` - Option 3: `2q` - Option 4: `2q + 1` 4. **Evaluating Each Option**: - **Option 1: `q`** - If `q` is any integer, it can be either odd or even. Thus, this option does not represent only odd integers. - **Option 2: `q + 1`** - If `q` is an integer, `q + 1` will also be either odd or even depending on whether `q` is odd or even. Therefore, this option does not represent only odd integers. - **Option 3: `2q`** - The expression `2q` will always yield an even integer for any integer `q`. Thus, this option cannot represent odd integers. - **Option 4: `2q + 1`** - This expression will always yield an odd integer because it is in the form of `2n + 1`, where `n` is equal to `q`. Therefore, this option correctly represents every odd integer. 5. **Conclusion**: The correct form that represents every odd integer is **Option 4: `2q + 1`**. ### Final Answer: Every odd integer can be expressed in the form of `2q + 1`, where `q` is an integer.
