When it is 2: 00 p. m. in new york city, it is 9: 00 pm in athens. if you leave new york at 7: 30 a. m. on wednesday and fly to athens over the course of 13 hours and 45 minutes, what time will it be in athens when you land?
a.
2: 30 p. m. wednesday
b.
9: 15 p. m. wednesday
c.
4: 15 a. m. thursday
d.
1: 15 p. m. thursday

First, we determine the difference in the times between New York City and Athens. From the given above, we can conclude that the difference between the times is 7 hours. Then, we determine the time in New York when the arrived in Athens. 
               Time in New York : 7:30 am + (13 hours + 45 minutes) 
                                           = 21:15 or 9:15 pm of Wednesday
Then, we translate this to time in Athens by adding the difference to our answer above,
             Time in Athens: 9:15 pm Wednesday + 7 hours 
                                          = 4:15 am of Thursday
Thus, the answer is letter C. 

Abit confused about what you mean, but i think you might be referring to slope intercept form: y = mx + bin that case b, or the y intercept is already given.(0,-1)find the slope by using the formulay2 - y1/x2 - x1the final slope will be 4/2, equivalent to 2.now your equation should look like thisy = 4/2x -1sorry if this didn’t you out!

Hello!

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

why?

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
