Answer Key
Variables
Section A: Quick Questions
Q1
B — Stores 5 in x
Q2
A — Alice
Q3
A — age = 15
Q4
A — Assign
Q5
B — 100
Section B: Match the Pairs
Q1
3name = 'Bob' → Error: Starts with number
Q2
my-score = 5 → Error: Hyphens not allowed
Q3
name3 = 'Bob' → Valid: Number after first char
Q4
my_score = 5 → Valid: Underscore ok
Q5
x = 10
print(x) → Output: 10
Q6
name = 'Alice'
print(name) → Output: Alice
Section C: Definitions
Q1
name = 'Alice' — Variables store values using = (assignment operator)Section D: Fill in the Blanks
Q1
name = 'Bob'
print(name)Q2
age = 15
print(age)Q3
score = 100
print(score)Q4
city = 'Melbourne'
print(city)Q5
age = input('Enter Age: ')
print(age)Section E: Spot the Error
Q1
B — Line 2 uses == (comparison) instead of = (assignment). Should be: age = 15
Q2
B — Line 2 starts with a number. Variable names cannot start with numbers. Should be: score2 = 100
Q3
C — Line 3 prints the string 'name' instead of the variable. Should be: print(name)
Q4
B — Line 2 uses hyphens which aren't allowed in variable names. Should be: student_name = 'Charlie'
Q5
C — Line 3 is missing quotes around the string value. Should be: school = 'Parkdale High'
