2-1 Inductive Reasoning & Conjecture

INDUCTIVE REASONING is reasoning thatuses a number of specific examples to arrive at a conclusion

When you assume an observed pattern will continue, you are using

INDUCTIVE REASONING.

2-1 Inductive Reasoning & Conjecture

A CONCLUSION reached usingINDUCTIVE REASONING is called aCONJECTURE.

2-1 Inductive Reasoning & Conjecture

Example 1Write a conjecture that describes the pattern in each sequence.

Use your conjecture to find the next term in the sequence.

2-1 Inductive Reasoning & Conjecture

Example 1aWhat is the next term?3, 6, 12, 24,

Conjecture: Multiply each term by 2 to get the next term.

The next term is 24 •2 = 48.

2-1 Inductive Reasoning & Conjecture

Example 1bWhat is the next term?

2, 4, 12, 48, 240Conjecture:

To get a new term, multiply the previous number by the position of the new number.The next term is 240•6 =1440.
