Review for Quiz Chapter 1

Determine whether the reasoning is an example of deductive or inductive reasoning.

A company charges a 10% re-stocking feefor returining an item. So when I return a radio that cost $150, I will only get $135 back.

• Inductive

• Deductive

For each sequence, determine if it is an arithmetic sequence, a geometric sequence, or neither. If it is either arithmetic or geometric, give the next terms in the sequence.

2, 12, 72, 432, 2592, ...

• Geometric Sequence; 15,552

• Arithmetic Sequence: 15,552

• Neither

Determine the most probable next term in each following list of numbers.

32, 16, 8, 4, 2, ...

• 1

• 62,391

• 91

• 480,22,001

Use the method of successive difference to determine the next number in each sequence.

1, 11, 35, 79, 149, 251, ...

• 391

• 79,469

• 1

• 30

Use the list of equations and inductive reasoning to  predict the next equation, and then verify your conjecture.
