Answer:

A) Blue

Step-by-step explanation:

If you converted 17000 C to Fahrenheit, it would be around 30000. So with star A being 30000 F, it would be blue since blue temperature ranges from 20000-40000 F.

Answer:

The answer is White

Step-by-step explanation:

Stars are also grouped into spectral types or classes by color. In general, a star's temperature determines its color, from red to blue-white. Star types are named with a letter: M, K, G, F, A, B and O. M stars are the coldest stars and O stars are the hottest. In the shown figure there is a type A star and we know that type A star has the temperature range from 10 thousand degree Celsius to 18000 degrees Celsius and the color of star is also White so this is the correct option.
