Answer:

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.

Answer:

Range is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Range can be calculated by subtracting the smallest value of the data set from the largest value of the data set.

The values are:

13, 17, 18, 15, 12, 21, 10, 6, 8, 11, 3

Largest Value in this data set:  21

Smallest Value in this data set: 3

Range = Largest Value - Smallest Value

Range = 21 - 3

Range = 18

quester [9]

Answer:

2/15

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer choices to this question do not make sense since probability is a measure that is always <= 1.0

Based on the number of times a particular colored tile is drawn we can assume that at the minimum there are 6 green, 20 red, 7 blue, 8 purple and 4 black tiles

Total number of tiles = 6 + 20 + 7 + 8 + 4 = 45

Probability of drawing a green tile = 6/45 = 2/15
