Answer:</h2>
The total number of handshakes that would happen between the three people are:
3
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
There are three people at a party.
Let they be denoted by A,B and C.
Now, the total number of handshakes that would occur will be denoted by:
AB, AC and BC
where AB denotes that A and B shake hands.
AC denote that A and C shake hands.
and BC denote that B and C shake hands.
Hence, total number of handshakes are:
3
Answer:

where
is the number of laptops, and
is the year.
in 2017: 
Step-by-step explanation:
I will define the variable
as the number of years that passed since 2007.
Since the school buys 20 lapts each year, after a number
of years, the school will have
more laptops.
and thus, since the school starts with 31 laptops, the equation to model this situation is

where
is the number of laptops.
since x is the number of years that have passed since 2007, it can be represented like this:

where
can be any year, so the equation to model the situation using the year:

and this way we can find the number of laptos at the end of 2017:

and


This is how you solve it; but first of all convert the percent into a decimal;55%= 0.55
0.55x = 164 (divide by 0.55 on both sides)
x = 164/0.55
x = 298.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
so 164 is 55% of 298.18(rounded)
Answer: the value of 7x-y is -14.
Step-by-step explanation:
When x=2 and y=4,
To find the value of 7x - y when x =2, y = 4, this means when ever you see x, put 2 in replacement, y, put 4 respectively.
7x - y = 7(2 - 4)
14 - 28
= -14.
