To solve the problem, we need to understand how time zones work and how they relate to each other. The chart provided shows the time differences between various time zones relative to Central Time (CST). Here's a step-by-step explanation of how to solve each part of the problem:
---
Step 1: Understand the Chart
The chart shows the following time differences:
-
Eastern Time (EST): 1 hour ahead of Central Time.
-
Central Time (CST): Reference time zone.
-
Mountain Time (MST): 1 hour behind Central Time.
-
Pacific Time (PST): 2 hours behind Central Time.
-
Alaska Time (AKT): 3 hours behind Central Time.
-
Hawaii Time (HST): 4 hours behind Central Time.

Step 2: Solve Each Part of the Problem
####
Part a: It is 8:05 P.M. in San Diego. What time is it in Honolulu?
1.
Identify the time zone for San Diego: San Diego is in the Pacific Time Zone (PST).
2.
Identify the time zone for Honolulu: Honolulu is in the Hawaii Time Zone (HST).
3.
Time difference between PST and HST: HST is 2 hours behind PST.
4.
Calculate the time in Honolulu:
- If it is 8:05 P.M. in San Diego (PST), then in Honolulu (HST), it will be:
\[
8:05 \text{ P.M.} - 2 \text{ hours} = 6:05 \text{ P.M.}
\]
Answer for Part a: It is
6:05 P.M. in Honolulu.

####
Part b: It is 9:30 A.M. in Miami. What time is it in Phoenix?
1.
Identify the time zone for Miami: Miami is in the Eastern Time Zone (EST).
2.
Identify the time zone for Phoenix: Phoenix is in the Mountain Time Zone (MST).
3.
Time difference between EST and MST: MST is 2 hours behind EST.
4.
Calculate the time in Phoenix:
- If it is 9:30 A.M. in Miami (EST), then in Phoenix (MST), it will be:
\[
9:30 \text{ A.M.} - 2 \text{ hours} = 7:30 \text{ A.M.}
\]
Answer for Part b: It is
7:30 A.M. in Phoenix.

####
Part c: It is 8:15 P.M. in Atlanta. What time is it in Juneau?
1.
Identify the time zone for Atlanta: Atlanta is in the Eastern Time Zone (EST).
2.
Identify the time zone for Juneau: Juneau is in the Alaska Time Zone (AKT).
3.
Time difference between EST and AKT: AKT is 3 hours behind EST.
4.
Calculate the time in Juneau:
- If it is 8:15 P.M. in Atlanta (EST), then in Juneau (AKT), it will be:
\[
8:15 \text{ P.M.} - 3 \text{ hours} = 5:15 \text{ P.M.}
\]
Answer for Part c: It is
5:15 P.M. in Juneau.

Final Answers:
1.
Part a: It is
6:05 P.M. in Honolulu.
2.
Part b: It is
7:30 A.M. in Phoenix.
3.
Part c: It is
5:15 P.M. in Juneau.
