There are

$\dbinom{2n}2 = \dfrac{(2n)!}{2! (2n-2)!}$

ways of pairing up any 2 members from the pool of $2n$ contestants. Note that

$(2n)! = 1\times2\times3\times4\times\cdots\times(2n-2)\times(2n-1)\times(2n) = (2n-2)! \times(2n-1) \times(2n)$

so that

$\dbinom{2n}2 = \dfrac{(2n)\times(2n-1)\times(2n-2)!}{2! (2n-2)!} = \boxed{n(2n-1)}$

ANTONII [103]

LiftA= u m/s ( upwards)
LiftB= -u m/s(downward)

Velocity A relative to B= V lift A- V lift B=8m/s
u-(-u)=8
u=4m/s
Lift A= 4 m/sec
Lift B= -4m/sec
For someone standing on first floor will be stationary W.r.t to the lift.
V lift A relative to Man= V liftA - V man= 4m/s

V lift B relative to Man= V lift B- V Man= -4 m/s
