Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is an error in the question. The table does not show two linear functions. y₁ is a linear function, but y₂ is not a straight line. It makes a bend at (-6,1).
Line 1 goes through (-12,-3) and (0,5).
slope = (5-(-3))/(0-(-12)) = 2/3
y-intercept = 5
y₁ = (2/3)x + 5
Line 2 goes through (-12,-2) and (-6,1).
slope = (1-(-2))/(-6-(-12)) = 1/2
y₂ = (1/2)x + 4
(2/3)x + 5 = (1/2)x + 4
x = -6
y = (2/3)x + 5 = 1
Solution: (-6,1)
Answer:
1. CYNARG
Step-by-step explanation:
This a example of Caesar's Cipher, in which each letter in the original word leads to a ciphered letter according to the following equation:
In which C is the index of the Ciphered letter in the alphabet, P is the index of the original letter and o is the offset.
Finding the offset:
O is coded B
O is the 15th letter in the alphabet, so .
B is the 2nd letter in the alphabet, so
So
PLANET:
P
P is the 16th letter in the alphabet.
So P is coded C.
L
L is the 12th letter in the alphabet:
L is coded Y(25th letter in the alphabet)
A
A is the 1st letter in the alphabet
A is coded N
N
N is the 14th letter in the alphabet
N is coded A
E
E is the 5th letter in the alphabet
E is coded R
So the correct answer is:
1. CYNARG
