Wrong compliation

Question about the task

Under discussion

int x = a + 1000; System.out.println("Your salary is:" x "dollars per month."); I wrote exactly the same answer and this is right I guess. still it is showing the error like this... com/codegym/task/task02/task0205/Solution.java:15: error: ')' expected System.out.println("Your salary is:" x "dollars per month."); ^ com/codegym/task/task02/task0205/Solution.java:15: error: not a statement System.out.println("Your salary is:" x "dollars per month."); ^ com/codegym/task/task02/task0205/Solution.java:15: error: ';' expected System.out.println("Your salary is:" x "dollars per month."); ^

your adding variable to the statement so you have to add + operator before and after variable x the statement is System.out.println("Your salary is: "+X+" dollars per month.");

package com.codegym.task.task02.task0205; /* Pay raise */ public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) { hackSalary(7000); } public static void hackSalary(int a) { a = a+1000; System.out.println("Your salary is: " +a+ " dollars per month."); }//Your salary is: 9000 dollars per month."Your salary is: " + (a+1000) + " dollars per month"); }

I did that, the problem is that you must finish with 8000 in total instead of 9000, i beleve is a mistake from the exercise itself

This will never work ~~System.out.println("Your salary is:" x "dollars per month.");~~ You are adding variable to the statement.So, you have to add '+' operator before and after variable x. That is- System.out.println("Your salary is: " + x + " dollars per month."); Hope this will help you.For more info dm me. Thank you

This will also work : System.out.println("Your salary is: " +(a+1000)+ " dollars per month.");

What Ankush showed is correct but try to be mindful of spaces in your strings and between characters

System.out.println("Your salary is:" x "dollars per month.");

You cannot write x as above. Wrong syntax. Change it as follows -

System.out.println("Your salary is: " + x+ " dollars per month.");

You must use + sign to combine different strings and variables.
