algol [13]

Under the principles discussed in "A Sample Court Case," United States v. Jones, the court is most likely to rule that the officers' installation of the device was not a search because the officers did not obtain a warrant.

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

fifteen

Explanation:

To answer that, let's list the people:

  • Person number 1
  • Person number 2
  • person number 3
  • person number 4
  • person number 5
  • person number 6

Now let's organize them in a relationship order in which each one relates to different people:

  • Person number 1, can relate to person number 2, person number 3, person number 4, person number 5 and person number 6. Totaling 5 relationships.
  • Person number 2 can relate to person number 3, person number 4, person number 5 and person number 6. Totaling a total of 4 relationships.
  • Person number 3 can relate to person number 4, person number 5 and person number 6. Totaling 3 relationships.
  • Person number 4 can relate to person number 5 and people number 6. Totaling 2 relationships.
  • Person number 5 and 6 can only relate to one another. Totaling 1 relationship.

Now if we add up the relationship totals for each person (5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1), we will realize that it is only possible to have 15 relationships between different people within a group of 6 people.
