Answer:
1.08
Step-by-step explanation:
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!
Answer: Here is the explanation. also it it +3y not -3y
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y+4+2y+1=x+3y+5 because
2y+y=3y
so now you have x+3y+4+1
4+1=5
now you have: x+3y+5
if you do not understand, What i am trying to say is, you need to add all of the same things.
I think it is 5.64 I hope this helps
