Ryan:Provide an example in the context of Math 105 of a conclusion or decision you made based on inductive reasoning. Explain why inductive reasoning was involved. During this course, I’ve often run into problems where I saw a problem or equation that looked somewhat familiar to me and began working on the problem without actually understanding the concept or reading the provided explanation. This is an example of inductive reasoning as I was making an observation and assuming that I understood a concept instead of actually completing the work or reading the instructions.Provide an example in the context of Math 105 of when you used deductive reasoning. Explain why this was a use of deductive reasoning.Several questions that I’ve run into on the ALEKS system were multiple choice where I was unable to determine which selection to make. Using deduction, I eliminated choices that I knew were not the answer before testing the solutions provided to determine what the best choice would be. This is an example of deductive reasoning as it was an instance of using factual information (the answers) to eliminate the incorrect choice to eventually discover the correct choice.Anthony:Good morning Class,Inductive Reasoning: The first problem set was due on November 6th. The next problem set was due on November 20th. I used inductive reasoning to assume that Problem Set 3 is Due on December 4th.Deductive Reasoning: I know that if someone says they completed their discussion posts, then that means that they made their initial posts before Tuesday at 2359 EST.-Dylan S.
