The Lualailua Hills Quadrangle of the East Maui (Haleakala) volcano on the island of
Maui in Hawaii is no longer active. To find out the date of the last eruption, scientists
conducted a chemical analysis of samples from the volcano area. The samples
contained approximately 62.31% of its original carbon-14. How long ago was the last
eruption of the volcano? (Use 5730 years for the half-life of carbon-14.)

8. Cryptology is the science of making and breaking codes. This lab explores how the idea of
functions and their inverses can be used to encode and decode messages.
To encode and decode a message, first replace each letter of the alphabet with a positive integer
using the following scheme, thus rewriting the original message as numbers instead of words:
A–1
F–6
K – 11
P – 16
U – 21
Z – 26
B–2
G–7
L – 12
Q – 17
V – 22
Blank – 27
C–3
H–8
M – 13
R – 18
W – 23
D–4
I–9
N – 14
S – 19
X – 24
E–5
J – 10
O – 15
T – 20
Y – 25
ENCODING: A one-to-one function can be used to encode a numerical message.
For example, suppose you want to send the message MATH to a friend, and you have decided
that the function f(x) = 3x + 4 will be the encoding function. This function simply describes the
procedure used to create the encoded message – in this case multiply by 3 and add 4. First
change the letters to corresponding numbers as shown above: 13 1 20 8. Then use these as the
input values in f(x).
f(13) = 3(13) + 4 = 43
f(1) = 7
f(20) = 64
f(8) = 28
So the encoded message that you send to your friend is: 43 7 64 28
NOTE: A graphing calculator can be used to evaluate a function as above:
a. Press [Y=] on the calculator. Type 3x + 4.
b. Choose [2nd][WINDOW] (TBLSET). Set the independent variable to Indpnt: Ask.
c. Then choose [2nd][GRAPH] (TABLE). Input each x value (13 1 20 8). The calculator
will return the function values (43 7 64 28) which is the encoded message.
DECODING an encoded message: Now it is up to your friend to decode the message. Decoding
is the process that “undoes” the encoding process. If f(x) encodes the message, what will decode
it? The inverse of f(x) or f-1(x)! So f-1(x) will be the decoding function.
x−4
In the example, the inverse of f(x) = 3x + 4 can be shown to be f-1(x) =
. Take the encoded
3
message (43 7 64 28) and use these values as input values in f -1(x). Again, the calculator can
x−4
be used to decode – simply enter y =
and use the TABLE feature as described above.
3
f-1(43) = 13
f-1(7) = 1
f-1(64) = 20
f-1(28) = 8
That’s the original numerical message! The last step is to convert back to letters using the table
given previously. Now your friend knows the message that you sent: MATH.

Cryptology Applications:
8.1. Suppose f(x) = 6x – 2 is the encoding function.
a. Encode “Collin Cougars”. [The answer will be numbers. Remember to include the space.]
Code: _____________________________________________________________________
b. Find the inverse of f(x).
c. Using the inverse function you just found, decode the following encoded message. Write the
letters above the numbers in the code. [The answer should be words. Put spaces where
appropriate!]
16 88 70 70 28 40 28 160 4 70 40 28 10 106 4 160 52 112 160 76
148 160 34 4 130 88 106 52 118 28 160 112 124 10 58 28 16 118
d. Why is it necessary for the encoding function to be one-to-one? Explanations should be
specific to this assignment, as well as clearly and thoroughly written using complete
sentences, correct spelling and proper grammar.

8.2. You intercepted the following message from Boris and Natasha.
25 19 19 30 41 17 15 26 27 41 15 28 18 41 18 29 41 34 22 19 41 27 15 34 22
You do not know the encoding or decoding function but from previous work with Boris and Natasha
you know their encoding and decoding functions are always linear and have 1 as the coefficient of x.
You also know this message consists of 6 words.
Using the encoding system described above,
a. How would you decode the message? Explain your strategy in complete sentences using
proper grammar and correct spelling.
b. Identify the decoding function.
c. What is the message?
