Ajay and Bala played the min-max game mentioned below. A, B and C are single digit whole numbers. E is an expression given by 8 - A - B + C. Ajay wanted to minimize E while Bala want to maximize it. Towards this goal, Ajay choose a single digit whole number and Bala substituted this in place of the variable of his choice. Ajay then choose another single digit whole number which was different from the first one and Bala substituted this in place of another variable of his choice. Ajay then choose the last single digit whole number and Bala substituted this in place of the remaining variable of his choice. Which of the following can be the minimum value of E if both play intelligently.

  x+y-z=11
  x-y-z=2
  x*(y+z)=18
  so the ans is..
  8-(a+b-c)
