In a specific code, "TRUTH" is coded as "7-18-21-20-8" and "FALSE" is coded as "6-1-12-19-5". How would "LOGIC" be coded if the rule changes such that every vowel is shifted by +2 in the alphabet before being converted to its numerical position?
Step-by-step Solution:
In standard alphabetical positions: L=12, O=15, G=7, I=9, C=3. The problem states a new rule: "every vowel is shifted by +2 in the alphabet before being converted". In the word "LOGIC", the vowels are 'O' and 'I'. Shift 'O' by +2: O (15) + 2 = 17 (Q). Shift 'I' by +2: I (9) + 2 = 11 (K). The consonants remain the same: L = 12 G = 7 C = 3 The resulting code for "LOGIC" is 12-17-7-11-3.
