Choose which reasoning process is shown in the following example. Explain your answer. It can be shown that 1 + 2 + 3 + ... +n=
n(n+1)
2
This formula can be used to conclude that the sum of the first 600 numbers, 1+2+3+...+600, is the following.
600(600 + 1
2
600(601)
= 300(601), or 180,300

Choose the correct answer below.
O A. This is inductive reasoning because a specific conclusion is being proved from a general statement.
OB. This is deductive reasoning because a specific conclusion is being proved from a general statement.
OC. This is deductive reasoning because it is an educated guess to say that the formula can be used to calculate the sum of the first 600 numbers.
OD. This is inductive reasoning because it is an educated guess to say that the formula can be used to calculate the sum of the first 600 numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you deduct something it means an intelligent reasoning based on given information for prediction.

In the above case we have a given formula from which we can deduct the facts .

We see a general statement is given from there we get a specific value.

By the way the formula given meant n(n+2)/ 2

from the figure we get,

the x axis shows   the months and,

the y-axis shows the number of satisfied customer.

each line or each cell in upward direction (y-axis) shows 500.

the appropriate scale for the y - axis is: -

a = 2000 customers

b = 4000 customers

c = 6000 customers

d = 8000 customers

e = 10000 customers

f = 12000 customers

g = 14000 customers

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
