If six graduates each shake hands with every other graduate once, the total number of handshakes can be calculated using the formula for combinations: ( \frac{n(n-1)}{2} ), where ( n ) is the number of graduates. In this case, ( n = 6 ), so the calculation is ( \frac{6 \times 5}{2} = 15 ). Therefore, there would be 15 handshakes in total at the party.

What are Public event?

A public event is basically an event (party, gathering, meeting), where everyone can attend. For example: It could be a barbeque at a local Park. If it was a private event, that means that only certain people are allowed to attend. The best way to explain a private event would be a celebrities funeral. Only family members and close friends would be on the list to attend.


Is neither him nor you expect to attend the meeting correct grammmar?

No, it should be "neither he nor you expect to attend the meeting"."Neither he nor you" is a compound subject, so you need to use the subjective form of the pronouns. "Him" is the objective form, so it is not correct here. One way to test this is to simplify the sentence by using a simple subject instead of a compound subject: It is easier to see that you would say "he expects to attend" and not "him expects to attend".There is another aspect of this example that can be confusing: "he" and "you" take different forms of the verb "expect": you would say "he expects to attend", but "you expect to attend". The rule in this case is to use the verb form that is correct for the subject closer to it. That is why it is correct to say "neither he nor you expect to attend the meeting" rather than "neither he nor you expects to attend the meeting".

Is we were obligated to attend the wedding independent or dependent?

The obligation to attend a wedding is typically considered a dependent clause if it is part of a larger sentence. For example, in the sentence "If we were obligated to attend the wedding, we would make arrangements," the clause "if we were obligated to attend the wedding" relies on the main clause to provide complete meaning. In this context, it is dependent. However, if stated alone as a complete thought, it can be independent.
