Use inductive reasoning to describe the pattern. then find the next two numbers in the pattern. –3, 9, –27, 81, . .

and 729.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a pattern –3, 9, –27, 81, . . . We are asked to find the next two numbers of our given pattern.

We can see that our given pattern is in form of geometric sequence. We need to find the common ratio of our given sequence by dividing any term of sequence by its previous term.

.

So the next number of our given term would be .

The next number would be  .

Therefore, the next two numbers of our given sequence are and 729.

exa:

)

3+11

14

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.
