Answer:

5:00 AM

Solution:

we will have to find the lowest common multiple of 8 , 5 and 18.

Since they blow their whistles once every 8/5/18 minutes.. you can imagine it as the multiplication table for these numbers. The number on which all three overlap,  is the LCM and hence the amount of time after they will blow their whistles together.

The LCM is 360

therefore, the guards will blow their whistles together 360 minutes after 11:00pm

360 minutes  = 6 hours

6 hours after 11:   5:00AM

Answer:

Hey!

Your answer is 5:00 am!

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find the LCM of 8, 15, 18...360

2) 360 mins = 6 hours

3) 11:00 pm + 6 hours = 5:00 am

Hope this helps!

An object is dropped from a small plane. As the object falls, its distance, d, above the ground after t seconds, is given by the
DedPeter [7]

<em><u>The inequality can be used to find the interval of time taken by the object to reach the height  greater than 300 feet above the ground is:</u></em>

d = -16t^2 + 1000

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>The object falls, its distance, d, above the ground after t seconds, is given by the  formula:</u></em>

d = -16t^2 + 1000

To find the time interval in which the object is at a height greater than 300 ft

Frame a inequality,

-16t^2 + 1000 > 300

Solve the inequality

Subtract 1000 from both sides

-16t^2 + 1000 - 1000 > 300 - 1000\\\\-16t^2 > -700

16t^2 < 700\\\\Divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 16\\\\t^2 < \frac{700}{16}\\\\Take\ square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\\t < \sqrt{\frac{700}{16}}\\\\t < \pm 6.61

Time cannot be negative

Therefore,

t < 6.61

And the inequality used  is: -16t^2 + 1000>300
