If x is an integer and y=3x+2, which of the following CANNOT be a divisor of y?
A) 4
B) 5
C) 6
D) 7
E) 8
Even though this seems to be a simple problem, I'm a little hung up on the logic. I feel there may be a bigger, more important number properties lesson burried in here that is just on the verge of coming together for me, so I can let this problem go! Thanks for your help.
