Answer:

They will sound together at 2pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, the first thing we need to calculate is , in how many minutes will the two gongs strike together.

To be able to do this, we need to calculate the least common multiple of the two numbers 24 and 40

The lowest common multiple between both is 120

This means that the two gongs will sound together at exactly 120 minutes

Now since 1 hour is 60 minutes, this means that 120 minutes will be = 120/60 = 2 hours

Since they both sounded together at 12 noon and the next time they will be sounding is next two hours, their sounding time will thus be 12 noon + 2 hours = 2 pm

What is the solution to the inequality 2n+5| &gt; 1?
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

n < - 3 or n > - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities of the type | x | > a , have solutions of the form

x < - a or x > a

Then

2n + 5 < - 1 or 2n + 5 > 1

Solve both inequalities

2n + 5 < - 1 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2n < - 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

n < - 3

OR

2n + 5 > 1 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2n > - 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

n > - 2

Solution is n < - 3 or n > - 2
