So the train is pulling about 50 cars in total, and there's about 30 boxes of freight in each car.


30 x 50 = 1500


The best estimate would be near 1500 boxes of freight through the whole train.

The distance, d, in kilometres, travelled by a plane after t hours can be represented by d(t)=-4t³=40t²+500t, where t is greater
Ede4ka [16]
D(t) = -4t^3 + 40t^2 + 500t = 4088
4t^3 - 40t^2 - 500t + 4088 = 0
t = 7

Therefore, the plane has flown 4088 km 7 hours after it took off.

At a party, everyone shook hands with everybody else. There were 66 handshakes. How many people were at the party?
Gnoma [55]

There would be 12 people at the party!

In general, with n+1 people, the number of handshakes is the sum of the first n consecutive numbers: 1+2+3+ ... + n.

Since this sum is n(n+1)/2, we need to solve the equation n(n+1)/2 = 66.

This is the quadratic equation n2+ n -132 = 0. Solving for n, we obtain 11 as the answer and deduce that there were 12 people at the party.

Since 66 is a relatively small number, you can also solve this problem with a hand calculator. Add 1 + 2 = + 3 = +... etc. until the total is 66. The last number that you entered (11) is n.

Hope this helps!
