Answer to Q34

At a party, everyone shook hands with everybody else. There were 4005 handshakes. How many people were at the party?

The number of handshakes between people is always the sum of 1+2+3+...+(n-1). n = number of people. Say there are 5 people, handshake between them will be 1+2+3+4 = 10 (try that with your friends 😀)

The sum of 1 to n of any number is (n(n+1))÷2. For example 1+2+3+4+5 = 15 and (5(5+1))÷2 = (5*6)÷2 = 15

So, to find the number of people at the party

(n(n+1))÷2 = 4005

Cross multiplying:
n(n+1) = 4005x2 = 8010

Expanding the bracket:
n² + n = 8010
n² + n - 8010 = 0

Solving that using the Almighty Formula (I don't think I need to go into that details)

n = 90 and -89

Ofcourse there can be negative people at the party so answer is 90 people

Answer: 90

That strategy is the acquisition of a value-priced company by a growth company. Using the growth company's higher-priced stock for the acquisition can produce outsized revenue and earnings growth. Even better is the use of cash, particularly in a growth period when financial aggressiveness is accepted and even positively viewed.he key public rationale behind this strategy is synergy - the 1+1=3 view. In many cases, synergy does occur and is valuable. However, in other cases, particularly as the strategy gains popularity, it doesn't. Joining two different organizations, workforces and cultures is a challenge. Simply putting two separate organizations together necessarily creates disruptions and conflicts that can undermine both operations.
