The binary operation * is defined on the set of integers such that p *…

The binary operation * is defined on the set of integers such that p * q = pq + p – q. Find 2 * (3 * 4)
  • A.
    11
  • B.
    13
  • C.
    15
  • D.
    22
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

p * q = pq + p – q
First execute for 3 * 4
==> 3(4) + 3 – 4 = 12 + 3 – 4 = 11
Now we execute for 2 * 11
==> 2(11) + 2 – 11 = 22 + 2 – 11 = 13
