(1) Use inductive reasoning to predict the next number in each list.
(a) 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, ?
(b) 2, 7, −3, 2, −8, −3, −13, −8, −18, ?
(c) 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 4/5, 5/6, 6/7, ?
If berries are ripe along the trail, hiking is safe if and only if grizzly bears have not been seen in the area. *

M is a subset of the set of natural numbers. 10 elements of the set are prime numbers, and the rest are divisible by either 2, or 3, or 5. Determine the cardinality of the set if it contains: 70 numbers that are divisible by 2; 60 numbers divisible by 3; 80 divisible by 5; 98 multiples by 2 or by 3; 95 multiples by 2 or by 5; 102 multiples by 3 or by 5; 20 numbers divisible by 30
prove that AUB = AU(B\A)
The sum of the first n positive odd integers is n2.
Establish the formula for the sum of the first n positive even integers and use proof by mathematical induction to prove its correctness.
Use predicates, quantifiers, logical connectives, and mathematical operators to express the statement that “Every positive integer is the sum of the squares of four integers.
Given set A = {A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H} and B = {B, D, E, J, K}. Find for the:
1. A ∪ B
2. A ∩ B
3. A x B
4. B x A
Suppose that the domain of the predicate P (x) consists of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Write
out each of the following predicate logic formulas in propositional logic formulas using disjunctions, conjunctions, negations, or their combinations.
