Hi! So this table on the picture has star information needed.
the queastion is:
“A star whose apparent magnitude and absolute magnitude are
identical is licated at 10 persecs away from us (by definition).
Star C is at 10 pc. Of the other four stars, rank them from
closest, closer, farther, farthest. (HINT: figure out if a star
would be brighter or dimmer IF it were located at 10
persecs.)”
So on second picture were my answers, and i got...
