Missing part of the question

Determine the number of handshakes, i, that will occur for each number of people, n, in a particular room. (people)

Answer:

$S_n = \frac{n}{2}(n - 1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

For 5 people

$\begin{array}{cc}{People} & {Handshakes} & {5} & {4} & {4} & {3} & {3} & {2} & {2} & {1} & {1} & {0} &{Total} & {10} \ \end{array}$

Using the given instance of 5 people, the number of handshakes can be represented as:

$(n - 1) + (n - 2) + (n - 3) + ........ + 3 + 2 + 1 + 0$

The above sequence is an arithmetic sequence and the total number of handshakes is the sum of n terms of the sequence.

$S_n = \frac{n}{2}{(T_1 + T_n})$

Where

$T_1 = n - 1$ --- The first term

$T_n = 0$ --- The last term

So:

$S_n = \frac{n}{2}(n - 1 + 0)$

$S_n = \frac{n}{2}(n - 1)$
