1) The pattern in the sequence 5, 15, 45, 135, 405, 1215 is that each term is 3 times the previous term. So the next term would be 3645. 2) The pattern in the sequence 1, 4, 9, 16, 19, 24, 31, 34, 39, 46 is not clear from the given terms. 3) The pattern in the sequence 9, 12, 11, 14, 13, 16, 15, 18 is also not clear from the given terms.

WS 1.1 A

Use inductive reasoning to find a pattern, and then make a reasonable conjecture for the next number or
item in the sequence.

1. 5 15 45 135 405 1215 __

2. 1 4 9 16 19 24 31 34 39 46 __

3. 9 12 11 14 13 16 15 18 _

4.

Find a counterexample to show that each statement is false.

5. When an even number is added to the product of two odd numbers, the result will be even.

6. When any number is multiplied by 6 and the digits of the answer are added, the sum will be divisible
by 6.

Use inductive reasoning to find a pattern for the answers. Then use the pattern to guess the result of the
final calculations, and perform the operation to see if your answer is correct.
