Question

B. The time in Paris is 6 hours ahead of New York. Use P for Paris time and N for New York time to express P as a function of N. (Represent your answer in terms of a 12-hour clock.) How would you adjust your formula if P comes out greater than 12?

Answer 1

Answer:

P(N) = 6 + N ; if P(N) > 12 ; P(N) = 6 + N - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Paris is 6 hours ahead of New York ;

P - Paris time

N - New York time

To represent P as a function of N

P(N) = 6 + N

If P comes out greater than 12 ; because we want a 12-hour clock :

If P(N) is > 12

P(N) becomes ;

P(N) = 6 + N - 12
