stat char *arrax ="C is my favourite"; Undefined symbol "stat". Thus illegal.
stat char *lp=arrax; Undefined symbol, "stat". Thus illegal.
Symbol "arrax" is undefined.
static int five=5; Valid.
But why is everything static? Hmmmm.
Actually, the "static" has nothing to
do with legality or predictability of
the next expressions.

a)*(arrax + 8) Undefined symbol "arrax", due to syntax
error.
See also arrax[8].
b)*arrax+2 Undefined symbol "arrax", due to syntax
error.
See also arrax[0] + 2.
c)lp[10] Undefined symbol "lp", due to syntax
error.
Since lp == arrax, expression is the
same as arrax[10].
d)12[arrax\

"Unexpected end of file encountered",
due to '\' at end of line.

This one, and the others, are in a C
and C++ textbook as well as the FAQ.
See below.

Give me your instructor's email, so I can save you the trouble of
submitting it yourself, since you don't want to do the work.

As you can see from the responses, you were doomed once you decided to be
honest.

BTW, people are far more inclined to help if you try to answer the questions
yourself and post the work you've done.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
