flight leaves Buffalo at 10:15 a.m. Buffalo time and arrives in Dallas at 1:33
p.m. Dallas time. If Buffalo is in the eastern time zone and Dallas is in the

Answer:

A- 4h 18min

Explanation:

First you look at the data provided that shows that this is this latest time, so when it is 10:15 in buffalo, it is 9:15 in Dallas. He arrives in Dallas at 1:33, so you can either think in central time which is 9:15-1:33, or in eastern time which is 10:15-2:33. From there you can subtract 15 from 33 getting 18, and from 10 o’clock to 2 o’clock (or 9 o’clock to 1 o’clock) is 4 hours.
