To determine the code for the word "DIRECT" based on the given coding pattern, we need to analyze the relationship between the letters in the word "BANK" and their corresponding codes "ZYLI".
Let's break down the given coding pattern:
- The first letter 'B' in "BANK" is coded as 'Z'.
- The second letter 'A' in "BANK" is coded as 'Y'.
- The third letter 'N' in "BANK" is coded as 'L'.
- The fourth letter 'K' in "BANK" is coded as 'I'.
From this analysis, we can observe that the code for each letter in "BANK" is obtained by subtracting the corresponding letter's position in the alphabet from 27 (the sum of the positions of 'A' and 'Z' in the alphabet).
Applying this coding pattern to the word "DIRECT", we can determine the code for each letter:
- The first letter 'D' in "DIRECT" is in the 4th position in the alphabet, so its code will be obtained by subtracting 4 from 27, resulting in 'B'.
- The second letter 'I' in "DIRECT" is in the 9th position in the alphabet, so its code will be obtained by subtracting 9 from 27, resulting in 'G'.
- The third letter 'R' in "DIRECT" is in the 18th position in the alphabet, so its code will be obtained by subtracting 18 from 27, resulting in 'P'.
- The fourth letter 'E' in "DIRECT" is in the 5th position in the alphabet, so its code will be obtained by subtracting 5 from 27, resulting in 'R'.
- The fifth letter 'C' in "DIRECT" is in the 3rd position in the alphabet, so its code will be obtained by subtracting 3 from 27, resulting in 'A'.
- The sixth letter 'T' in "DIRECT" is in the 20th position in the alphabet, so its code will be obtained by subtracting 20 from 27, resulting in 'R'.
Therefore, the code for "DIRECT" based on the given coding pattern is "BGPCAR", which corresponds to option (a).

The answer is A because for each letter from BANK to ZYLI you go back two letters so do the same TO DIRECT and you will get the answer as RYVCQ.
