Using inductive reasoning, determine the next two terms in each sequence. -3, 5, -7, 9, , A, C, F, J, , Blank 1: Blank 2: Blank 3: Blank 4:

A = -11

C = 13

F = -15

J = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Inductive reasoning is the use of observations to draw a conclusion.

The sequence of numbers in this problem is:

-3, 5, -7, 9, ...

A pattern is observed and that pattern is:

(n + 1) th term = |nth term| + 2 (with alternating negative signs)

for instance if (n+1)th term = 2nd term; nth term = 1st term

2nd term = |1st term| + 2

2nd term = |-3| + 2 = 5 (no negative sign since previous term had negative)

-3rd term = |5| + 2 = -7 (negative sign because the previous term was positive)

4th term = |-7| + 2 = 9 (no negative sign since previous term had negative)

-5th term (A)= |9| + 2 = - 11 (negative sign because the previous term was positive)

6th term (C) = |-11| + 2 = 13 (no negative sign since previous term had negative)

if you use the same sequence for F and J, you will get:

F = -15

J = 17

you should try them out to see if you will get the same solution.

sum= when you add is how much the whole amount is

distance= when you use angles and it means how far it goes
