Edhesive 7.6 lesson practice python def mystery(a, b = 8, c = -6):
return 2 * b + a + 3 * c

#MAIN
x = int(input("First value: "))
y = int(input("Second value: "))
z = int(input("Third value: "))

1) Suppose we add the following line of code to our program:

print(mystery(x))
What is output when the user enters 1, 1, and 1?

2)Suppose we add the following line of code to our program:

print(mystery(x, y, z))
What is output when the user enters 8, 6, and 4?

(a) The output is -1

(b) The output is 32

Explanation:

Given: The above code

Solving (a): The output when 1, 1 and 1 is passed to the function

From the question, we have: print(mystery(x))

This means that only the value of x (which in this case is 1) will be passed to the mystery function

(a, b = 8, c = -6) will then be seen as: (a = 1, b = 8, c = -6)

The output is -1

Solving (b): The output when 8, 6 and 4 is passed to the function

From the question, we have: print(mystery(x,y,z))

This means that values passed to the function are: x = 8, y = 6 and z = 4

(a, b = 8, c = -6) will then be seen as: (a = 8, b = 6, c = 4)

The output is 32
