Detailed Solution

Gauss' law states that total electric flux of an enclosed surface is given by qε , where q is the charge enclosed by the surface. Thus, from figure,

Total charge inside the surface is = Q - 2Q = -Q 

Total flux through the surface of the sphere =-Qε

Since -2Q is not at the centre of the Gaussian surface , field produced by -2Q at different points on the Gaussian surface will be different .
