Answer 1

To determine when a family in Accra, Ghana, should tune in to watch a concert scheduled to start at midnight (12:00 AM) on Sunday in Sydney, Australia (150° East), we first need to figure out the time difference between Sydney and Accra.

1. **Time Zone of Sydney**:
- Sydney is in the Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT) timezone, which is UTC+11 hours during Daylight Saving Time (generally from the first Sunday in October to the first Sunday in April).
- Assuming the concert is during Daylight Saving Time, Sydney is UTC+11.

2. **Time Zone of Accra**:
- Accra is in the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) timezone, which is UTC+0.

3. **Calculate the time difference**:
- Sydney (UTC+11) is 11 hours ahead of Accra (UTC+0).

4. **Concert time in Sydney**:
- The concert starts at 12:00 AM on Sunday.

5. **Convert the concert time to Accra time**:
- To find the corresponding time in Accra, subtract the 11-hour difference:
- 12:00 AM Sunday in Sydney - 11 hours = 1:00 PM Saturday in Accra.

Therefore, the family in Accra should tune in to the television at **1:00 PM on Saturday** to watch the concert from Sydney.
