For an employee to qualify for early retirement at a certain company, the sum of the employee’s age and years of service must be at least 80, If Sue was K years old when she was hired by the company, what is the minimum age at which she could possibly qualify for early retirement.  Select:
A) K+35
B) (80+K)/2
C) 2K+35
D) (70-K)/2
E) 2(70-K)
Say Sue was hired when she was already 80 years old (k=80), then she could retire right away, at the age of 80. Now, plug k=80 in the answer choices and see which yields 80. Only C fits.   Answer: (80+K)/2.
