Four people in a room. Each shakes hands with each of the others once. How many handshakes are there?

storchak [24]

The correct answer is 6.

The clearest way to determine this is by creating a table of possible hand shaking. If we label the people A-D, the following are the ways they can be combined:
AB
AC
AD
BC
BD
CD

There are no other combinations.

There are only green pens and red pens in a box. there are 3 more red pens than green pens in the box. sheila is going to take a

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: 6 or 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Let the number of green pens = x

Number of red pens = x + 3

Probability of picking same color = 17/35

Taking two pens at random; probability of picking two pens of same color.

Probability of picking red on first pick then red on second pick ; or picking blue on first pick then blue on second pick

Probability = (Required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

Total number of pens = x + x + 3 = 2x + 3

Probability of picking red then red:

P(red first) = (x+3)/2x+3

P(red second) = x+3-1 / 2x+3-1 = (x+2)/2x+2)

Therefore, probability of red then red =

(x+3)/(2x+3) × (x+2)/2x+2)

= (x+3)(x+2) / (2x+3)(2x+2)

Probability of green then green:

P(first green) = x/(2x+3)

P(second green) = (x-1) / (2x+3-1) = (x-1) / (2x+2)

P(green then green) = x(x-1)/(2x+3)(2x+2)

Therefore,

[(x+3)(x+2) / (2x+3)(2x+2)] + [x(x-1)/(2x+3)(2x+2)] = 17/35

(x+3)(x+2)+x(x-1) / (2x+3)(2x+2) = 17/35

Cross multiply :

35(x+3)(x+2)+x(x-1) = 17(2x+3)(2x+2)

35(2x^2 + 4x + 6) = 17(4x^2 + 10x + 6)

70x^2 + 140x + 210 = 68x^2 + 170x + 102

70x^2 - 68x^2 + 140x - 170x + 210 - 102 = 0

2x^2 - 30x + 108 = 0

Now we have a quadratic equation which can be factoeized used using any known factorization method.

Factorizing this, we get

(x-6) = 0 or (x-9) = 0

x = 6 or x = 9

Remark

I'll do two from each group, leaving you with 1. I just leave the answer for the one I don't do or a hint it it is long. That's more than we are instructed to do (which is three parts per posted question).

One

Two ratios form a proportion because they both equal the same thing when you reduce them to the point where the ratios are prime to each other.

3/4 = 12/16

3/4 can't be reduced any further. When both 12 and 16 are divided by 4, the result is 3/4

Two

Formula

Sale Price/Original Price = 3/4

Solve

Sale Price / 64 = 3/4 Multiply both sides by 64

Sale Price = (3/4)*64

Sale Price = 48

Three

682 Trillion atoms of hydrogen.

Four

Formula

rotations / 40 seconds = rotations / second

Solve

2000 / 40 seconds = rotations / 1 second Just divide

50 rotations/1 second = rotations / second.

Five

Formula

Herd of cows / Total pounds of milk = 1 cow / pounds of milk

Given

Herd = 12

pounds total = 224998

Solve

12/224998 = 1 / x Cross multiply

12x = 224998

x = 18750 pounds of milk for 1 cow.

Six

0.5 m in 1 second.

Seven

Formula

Pages / hour = pages / minute

pages / hour = 4.5

1 hour = 60 minutes.

Solve

4.5 / 1 hour. But 1 hour = 60 min

4.5 pages / 60 min = 0.075 pages per minute.

Note this is not a true proportion. You just have to know how it is done.

Eight

This is also not a true proportion. The best way to do this is called unit analysis.

$\dfrac{18feet}{2seconds} * \dfrac{1 mile}{5280 feet}\dfrac{3600sec}{1hour}$

Each set of units on the right will cancel with a set of units on the left until all that you area left with is miles / hour. Then just multiply the numerator numbers together and denominator numbers together.

numerator: 18 * 1 * 3600 = 64800

denominator: 2 * 5280 * 1 = 10560

Now divide the numerator by the denominator.

answer: numerator/denominator = 64800/10560 = 6.14 miles per hour.

Nine

Note: there are 1760 yards in a mile.

1 gallon will take you 32000 yards or 18 miles. Do this the same way eight was done.
