Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Key insight: The first letter is shifted forward by 4 positions. Starting from the second letter, letters alternate: subtract 2, add 2, subtract 2, and so on.
Step 1: Apply +4 to the first letter: V -> Z (+4).
Step 2: Apply -2 to the second letter: E -> C (-2).
Step 3: Apply +2 to the third letter: N -> P (+2).
Step 4: Apply -2 to the fourth letter: T -> R (-2).
Step 5: Apply +2 to the fifth letter: U -> W (+2).
Step 6: Apply -2 to the sixth letter: R -> P (-2).
Step 7: Apply +2 to the seventh letter: E -> G (+2).
