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!
Hello there ^ _ ^
We know that 36 plates filled 1 box
if we have 1000 plates, how many box it would fill.
All we have to do is divide 1000 by 36 to find the answer.
1000/ 36 = 27.77777 or you can just say 28
I hope this help!
Answer:
i think
Step-by-step explanation:
A)Theorem. every theorem can be proved.
Total = Principal * (1+(rate/n))^n*years
Total = 1,200 * (1.015)^14
Total =
1,200 * <span><span><span>1.2317557307
</span>
</span>
</span>
<span>Total =
1,478.11</span>
