English

The sentence that incorrectly uses a hyphen is:

  • Be sure to get to the fair early; the later it gets, the more-crowded it is.

<h3>What is a hyphen?</h3>

A hyphen is a symbol that looks like a dash but is used to separate complex words. In the list of options provided we see the use of hyphens in separating complex words. However, the second sentence uses the hyphen in an incorrect manner.

There is no need to separate more and crowded. These are two distinct words that do not form a complex word. The best thing to do is to leave them as individual words. So we can say that option B makes use of the hyphen in a wrong manner.

The cipher text "ZEDOPPYBDQODBOCEVD" generated using Ceasar cipher. Which of the following key size is used.​
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

d) 10

Explanation:

Caesar cipher is code that uses the shift of the letters of alphabet. Key size simply denotes the number of the letters shifted.

For example, let's take the letter A. If key size iz 3, A becomes D (third letter down the alphabet). If the key size is 6, A becomes G (sixth letter down the alphabet).

So to answer this question, we need to decode this code. That means we do reverse process; we go up the alphabet, and shift every letter in the code for the key size.

If the key size is 3, we shift every letter of the code by 3 up the alphabet. So, Z becomes W, E becomes B etc. We end up with: WBALMMVYANLAYLZBSA which obviously doesn't make any sense.

If the key size is 5, similarly, we end up with: UZYJKKTWYLJYWJXZQY.

If the key size is 7, we end up with: SXWHIIRUWJHWUHVXOW.

And finally if the key size is 10, we end up with: PUTEFFORTGETRESULT (PUT EFFORT GET RESULT), which is the only option that makes sense.
