Check Out That Test Identifying Patterns Inductive reasoning- coming to a conclusion by recognizing a pattern in some data. Conjecture- the conclusion you come to by inductive reasoning. Directions: Make a conjecture about each situation. Find the next item in each pattern. 1. Monday, Wednesday, Friday,… 2. 3, -6, 12, -24, 48,… 3. Find a Counter Example Counter example Erroneous Directions: Show that each conjecture is false by providing a counter example. 4. For all positive numbers n, 5.
