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.

yes

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.
