Answer:

(C) x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation :-

Let x = 4 (An even Number)

now put x = 4 in our all Options.

(a) x + 2

now put x = 4

so, 4+2 = 6 (Is also an Even Number)

Hence it is False.

(b) x - 2

now put x = 4

then, 4 - 2 = 2 ( Is also an Even Number)

Hence it is False.

(C) x + 1

put x = 4

then, 4 + 1 = 5 (It is an odd number and also it is the next odd number which have we let).

Hence x + 1 is write.

(D) x - 1

put x = 4

then, 4 - 1 = 3 (It is also an odd number but According to question it is not the next odd number which have we let).

so it is also False.

Hence the Correct answer is (C) x + 1
