//can someone explain to me how to do this question I am very lost

Explanation / Answer

a) The conditional operator (?) evaluates an expression returning a value if that expression is true and a different    one if the expression is evaluated as false.

Its format is:       condition ? result1 : result2

If condition is true the expression will return result1, if it is not it will return result2.

b)       If(initial>10)

{

        Final=initial*(intermediate+10);

}

else{

        Final=initial*(intermediate-10);

}

c)     ((input >1&&input <4) ? output-5 : output +5);
