Final answer:

The Hebrew equivalent for the numbers 11 (Yud Aleph), 9 (Tet), 16 (Yud Vav), 15 (Yud Hey), and 42 (Mem Bet) are based on the Gematria system where individual letters correspond to numerical values.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question refers to the Hebrew numerology system known as Gematria where Hebrew letters are assigned numerical values. While the provided question contains a reference to the Greek alphabet, the actual values for the numbers 11, 9, 16, 15, and 42 in the Hebrew alphabet are as follows:

  • 11 is represented by the Hebrew letters Yud Aleph (יא).
  • 9 is represented by the letter Tet (ט).
  • 16 is represented by the letters Yud Vav (יו).
  • 15 is represented by the letters Yud Hey (יה), often used to avoid writing the name of God.
  • 42 is represented by the letters Mem Bet (מב).

Please note that each Hebrew letter has its own unique numerical value, and combinations of these letters can represent different numbers.
