Explanation:
The reason why "Spanish" and "Quetzalcoatl" would be the correct answer because they believed that the arrival of the Quetzalcoatl god was from the Spanish people. When the Spanish explorers came to the Mesoamerican region from places like Spain, they were just exploring the land that they stopped on, but they people that were already on the land thought that they were special people. When the Aztec encountered the Spanish explorers, they treated them like they were gods, even though they didn't have any evidence showing that they were gods. At first the Spanish explorers found this very weird, because they were just random people to them, but they rolled with what the Aztec's thought they were. The Spanish explorers actually used this to their advantage. Because the Aztecs thought they were a gift from god, they gave them and treated them with whatever they asked, and this helped the Spanish settle in the land because the Aztecs obeyed all of their orders. The Aztecs believed that if they didn't follow their orders, the gods would not accept them, so they obeyed the Spanish orders. To sum it all up, they believed that the Spanish explorers was the coming of Quetzalcoatl, but it really wasn't.

Answer: $51.17
Explanation:
A call option gives the holder the right but not the obligation to buy a stock. They are usually exercised when the underlying stock has a higher price than the price that the call option allows them to buy the underlying stock for. This is called the strike price.
As the option is about to expire here, it should be trading at the same price as the underlying stock or else an arbitrageur could take advantage of it by buying the call option which would enable them to get the stock at $45 when the option expires. They can then sell the stock for $51.17 and make a profit of:
= 51.17 - 45 = $6.17
