Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

It would take longer for the market for architects to move to a new equilibrium, other things being equal. It takes more time in training to become an architect, and the knowledge one has is more specialized. Hence, it would take longer for the increase in quantity supplied to reach a new equilibrium after an increase in demand for architects than for house painters. For a decrease in demand, house painters can find similar jobs at similar pay more easily than can an architect.

It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
