Suppose you mark n points on a circle, where n is a whole number greater than 1. The number of segments you can draw that connect these points is 1/2n2- 1/2n How many segments can you draw if you mark 8 points on the circle
if the equation is 0.5*n*2-0.5n which I doubt: n-0.5n 8-0.5*8 8-4 the answer would be 4 however if it's 0.5n^2-0.5n: 0.5(8^2)-0.5(8) 0.5(64)-4 32-4 28 then the answer should be 28
