Suppose you are organizing a business meeting and are in charge of facilitating the introductions. How would you arrange a group

of n people so each person can shake hands with every other person? How might you organize this process? How many times will each person shake hands with someone else? How many handshakes will occur? How must your method vary according to wether or not n is even or odd?

Hi,
This is using 'n', so there would be a lot of possibilities, but I would form a circle with the group of people, then each person would shake the person to their right, and then to their right, one time. This method would not vary because a circle can contain even or odd number of people.

Hope this helps!

Solve each of the following quadratic equations<br><br> 3x=0.5x^2<br><br><br> 0=5x^2-2x+6
UNO [17]

<u>Question 1</u>

<u />3x=0.5x^{2}\\\\6x=x^{2} \\ \\ x^{2}-6x=0 \\ \\ x(x-6)=0 \\ \\ \boxed{x=0, 6}

<u>Question 2</u>

<u />0=5x^{2}-2x+6 \\ \\ x=\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(5)(6)}}{2} \\ \\ x=\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{-116}}{10} \\ \\ x=\frac{2 \pm 2i\sqrt{29}}{10} \\ \\ \boxed{x=\frac{1 \pm i\sqrt{29}}{5}}
