Let's define both terms first. Inductive reasoning is a conclusion that you get out of a series of observation. However, this may be true or not. But for deductive reasoning, you reach a conclusion that you get out of a series of observations that are also supported by facts. These are all true. 

Since all the statements are based on facts, this is a deductive reasoning.

The answer is B. deductive.

A person on a moving sidewalk travels 40 feet in 8 seconds. The moving sidewalk has a length of 200 feet. How long will it take
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The man covers 200 ft in 40 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

A person is moving on the sidewalk from one end to the other end.

He walks 40 feet in 8 seconds.

Therefore his speed = \frac{distance covered}{time}

                                   = \frac{40}{8}

                                   = 5 ft/s^{2}

He covers the sidewalk distance at a rate of 5 feet every second.

To calculate the time taken to cover 200 ft,

time = \frac{distance to be covered}{speed}

time =\frac{200}{5}

<u>time  = 40 seconds</u>

Hence the man covers 200 ft in 40 seconds.

There are eight shirts in your closet, three blue, two are black, one is green, and two are white. You randomly select one to we
Maru [420]

The probability of wearing blue shirts on both days is 3/28.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is the measure of the likelihood of an occurrence.

Given:

8 shirts are available out of which 3 are blue, 1 is green and 2 are white.

P(blue on Monday) = 3/8

Now, 7 shirts are left to wear on Tuesday

P(blue on Tuesday) =2/7

So,

the probability of wearing blue shirts on both days = 3/8 * 2/7 = 3/28

Can someone help me?
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: m=−3

Step-by-step explanation: −40−2(3m+1/2)=7m−2

−40+(−2)(3m)+(−2)(1/2)=7m+−2

−40+−6m+−1=7m+−2

(−6m)+(−40+−1)=7m−2

−6m+−41=7m−2

−6m−41−7m=7m−2−7m

−13m−41+41=−2+41

−13m/−13=39/−13

m=−3

What mistake I guess Keith did make is he subtracted 2 from -39 which equaled to -37 which caused him divide -37 by 13 when it should have been 39 divided by 13 because he should have left 39 alone and not have subtracted 2 from it also it should not have been negative basically what I'm trying to say is that he did his division and subtraction wrong.
