Bell Ringer Patterns & Conjectures Assignment Ticket Out Next Monday, October 12, No school. Teacher work day
A counterexample is a statement that shows that a conjecture is wrong by giving an example that does not agree with the conjecture.
Inductive reasoning is reasoning based on a pattern that is observed. A C E G I K M O Q (Rule: skip every other letter.)
In Fridays, they usually serve beans in the cafeteria. Today is Friday, so they will serve beans today in the cafeteria.

Find a pattern for each sequence. Use the pattern to show the next two terms. 1. 5, 11, 18, 26, … 2. A, B, D, E, G, H, … Make a conjecture for each scenario. Show your work. 3. the square of an odd number Find one counterexample to show that each conjecture is false. 4. All four-sided figures are rectangles.
