Explain how deductive reasoning is used to prove an argument.

Deductive reasoning is what is proven and what you already know for sure. Example: there are 2 ants. There is 1 ant next to the 2. There are 3 ants total. (Rules of addition)

So you don't have to solve any problems to use deductive reasoning, unlike inductive reasoning, which is not proven
Example of inductive reasoning: there are lots of girls in my class. So there are probably lots of girls in the other classes too. You don't know that for sure.

6x+18y=18 find y and z
Masja [62]

6x + 18y = 18. Let us take x = 0

6(0) + 18y = 18

0 + 18y = 18

18y = 18

y = 18/18

y = 1

(0, 1) [x = 0, y = 1]

6x + 18y = 18. Let us take y = 0

6x + 18(0) = 18

6x + 0 = 18

6x = 18

x = 18/6

x = 3

(3, 0) [x = 3, y =0]

Infinite solutions can be found for x and y

Given the figure. Find AC.
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Image is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

AC = 10sin 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached, using terms in trigonometric ratio, AC is the opposite side, BC is the adjacent side and AB is the hypotenuse.

Thus, since we want to find AC;

We know that in trigonometric ratios; opposite/hypotenuse = sin θ

In the diagram, θ = 40° and AB = 10

Thus,

AC/10 = sin 40°

Multiply both sides by 10 to get;

AC = 10sin 40°

Evaluate 5+ (-11) - (-11)
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a problem with negatives, we use the following rule.

If it is like

x+(-y), it is equivalent to x-y

If the equation is like

(-x)-(-y), it is equivalent to (-x)+y

So,

5+(-11)=5-11=-6

(-6)-(-11)=(-6)+11=5

Your answer is 5.
