2. Why (not) try going to Europe when the tickets are inexpensive?
3. Why try studying when there's no school tomorrow?

@rachie4 thank you ! I want to know further from 3 points.
- “Why (not) try doing/to do ...?” Are both possible?
- Are these colloquial or literal expressions?
- What kind of feeling these expressions connotate? Angry? Appalled?

@Fougnat
1. Yes, these are both possible. You can say, "Why not try doing some exercise?" or "Why not try to do some homework?".
2. I feel they are more colloquial.
3. Usually, these expressions connotate a suggestion, but it can be good or bad. I would say the first example I gave has a negative meaning, but the other two can be positive or convey no positive or negative feelings.
I hope that helps!
