Answer:

The answer is true

Step-by-step explanation:

Inductive reasoning is a principle in mathematical and philosophical logic where general conclusions are derived from specific situations. Its contrary is deductive reasoning where we use a general rule to explain particular situations, reasoning commonly used in mathermatics. Example: all right angles measure 90 degrees, AB is right angle so AB measure 90 degrees,

In inductive reasoning we use the opposite logic that can take to incorrect general principles due to a bias. Example, my friend is tall and a good basket player, Joe is tall and also plays good basketball so All tall people are good basket players is a biased conclusion.

I need help with #47 to #50 ASAP…. Please help me with it

Ksenya-84 [330]

Step-by-step explanation:

a triangular number n is the sum of all natural numbers <= n.

t1 = 1

t2 = 1+2 = 3

t3 = 1+2+3 = 6

t4 = 1+2+3+4 = 10

...

so,

tn = tn-1 + n

47.

1×8 + 1 = 9 is a square number.

3×8 + 1 = 25 is a square number

6×8 + 1 = 49 is a square number

10×8 + 1 = 81 is a square number

1/3 = 0 remainder 1

3/3 = 1 remainder 0

6/3 = 2 remainder 0

10/3 = 3 remainder 1

15/3 = 5 remainder 0

21/3 = 7 remainder 0

28/3 = 9 remainder 1

so, there seems to be a pattern 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 ...

49.

1/4 = 0 remainder 1

4/4 = 1 remainder 0

9/4 = 2 remainder 1

16/4 = 4 remainder 0

25/4 = 6 remainder 1

36/4 = 9 remainder 0

49/4 = 12 remainder 1

so, there seems to be a pattern 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 ...

polygonal numbers is the real name for this.

the formula for dimensions = 5 is

(3n² − n)/2

for dimensions = 6 it is

2n² - n

so, dimensions=5 (and therefore dividing also by 5) we get the remainders

1/5 = 0 remainder 1

5/5 = 1 remainder 0

12/5 = 2 remainder 2

22/5 = 4 remainder 2

35/5 = 7 remainder 0

51/5 = 10 remainder 1

70/5 = 14 remainder 0

92/5 = 18 remainder 2

117/5 = 23 remainder 2

145/5 = 29 remainder 0

here the pattern is 1 0 2 2 0 1 0 2 2 0 1 0 2 2 0 ...

dimensions=6 (and therefore dividing also by 6) we get the remainders

1/6 = 0 remainder 1

6/6 = 1 remainder 0

15/6 = 2 remainder 3

28/6 = 4 remainder 4

45/6 = 7 remainder 3

66/6 = 11 remainder 0

91/6 = 15 remainder 1

120/6 = 20 remainder 0

153/6 = 25 remainder 3

190/6 = 31 remainder 4

231/6 = 38 remainder 3

276/6 = 46 remainder 0

325/6 = 54 remainder 1

here the pattern is 1 0 3 4 3 0 1 0 3 4 3 0 1 0 3 4 3 0 ...

A map has a scale of 5 inches : 12 miles. if two cities are 13 inches apart on the map, what is the actual distance between the

emmasim [6.3K]

Set up a proportion that looks like 5/12 = 13/x with X being the actual distance between the cities if they are 13 inches apart on the map.

Then cross-multiply to get 5x = 156. Divide by 5 to isolate the X and get X = 31.2

The cities are a distance of 31.2 miles apart.

I'm guessing your question cut off where you put to the nearest... and you mean to round to the nearest whole number in which case your answer would be just 31 miles apart.
