(a) Yellow
(b) 4
(c) All of the above

Ordinary maths
Find the equation of the line crossing through the points (7,3) and (12,10)

Higher maths
Prove that for any compact simple gauge group G, a non-trivial quantum Yang–Mills theory exists on R and has a mass gap Δ > 0. Existence includes establishing axiomatic properties at least as strong as those cited in Streater & Wightman (1964), Osterwalder & Schrader (1973) and Osterwalder & Schrader (1975).
