I) p(10n) = p(n)
p(10n) will always have units digit as 0 --> p(10n) = 0
p(n) can be any integer.
Not a must be true statement
II) p(n + 1) > p(n)
If n = 2; p(n +1) = 3 and p(n) = 2 --> p(n + 1) > p(n)
If n = 9; p(n + 1) = 0 and p(n) = 9 --> p(n + 1) < p(n)
Not a must be true statement
III) p(2n) = 2*p(n)
If n = 12; p(2n) = p(24) = 8 and 2*p(n) = 4
Not a must be true statement
Answer: A
