You must calculate how many ways can 2 people be selected from 65.
The formula is:
n! / r! * (n-r)! =
65! / 2! * 63! =
65*64*63! / 2 * 63! =
65*64 / 2 =
2,080 handshakes

The volume of a box without a lid is given by the formula v = 4x(10-x)^2, where x is a length in inches and v is the volume in c
Aloiza [94]

The volume of the box without the lid is 500 cubic inches.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

The capacity of an object is measured by its volume. For instance, a cup's capacity is stated to be 100 ml if it can hold 100 ml of water in its brim.

Another way to think of volume is as the amount of space a three-dimensional object takes up.

Calculation for the volume of the box-

The volume of a box without a lid is given by the formula v = 4x(10-x)².

Where,

'x' is a length in inches, and

'v' is the volume in cubic inches.

The volume when x = 5 inches.

Substitute the value of 'x' in the formula of volume;

v = 4×5(10-5)²

  = 20×5²

v  = 500

Therefore, the volume of a box without a lid is 500 cubic inches.
