Answer 1

To determine the output based on the new rule "subtract 5, then divide by 4", we will apply this operation to each input value provided in the table.

The formula can be expressed as:
\[ \text{Output} = \frac{(\text{Input} - 5)}{4} \]

Now, let's calculate the output for each input:

1. **For an Input of 21**:
\[
\text{Output} = \frac{(21 - 5)}{4} = \frac{16}{4} = 4
\]

2. **For an Input of 17**:
\[
\text{Output} = \frac{(17 - 5)}{4} = \frac{12}{4} = 3
\]

3. **For an Input of 9**:
\[
\text{Output} = \frac{(9 - 5)}{4} = \frac{4}{4} = 1
\]

4. **For an Input of 29**:
\[
\text{Output} = \frac{(29 - 5)}{4} = \frac{24}{4} = 6
\]

Now we can fill in the outputs:

| Input | Output |
|-------|--------|
| 21 | 4 |
| 17 | 3 |
| 9 | 1 |
| 29 | 6 |
