What conjecture can you make about the sum of the first 46 positive odd numbers?

Any conjecture you want; a conjecture is merely an opinion or conclusion based on given information. Whether the conjecture is true or not is left to be proved (if provable at all).
One opinion (conjecture) could be that the sum is "blue". It's a totally nonsense conjecture, but its a conjecture none the less.
A sensible conjecture might be that the sum is odd.
This can be tested and found to be true or false by summing the first 46 odd numbers (a mechanical method that is fairly easy in this case), or by the mathematical manipulation of axioms via algebra (a mathematical proof).

∙ 6y agoOne conjecture that you can make is that the sum is 27. A conjecture does not need to be true or even reasonable - it is just something that you think! It can then be proved to be true or (as in this case) false.

Do 2 positive numbers make a positive answer?
Often, but not always. It depends upon what you do with them. If the numbers are not equal, and you subtract the larger from the smaller, the answer will be negative.
How do you subtract two negative numbers?
2 negatives make a positive
What are the factor pairs of NEGATIVE numbers?
So, when two negative numbers multiply, their product is a positive number (Remember the rule: minus x minus = plus). So, both the numbers in the factor pair should be either negative or positive to give a positive number as a product. For example: (-3 and -6) and (-2 and -9) form factor pairs for 18.
What is the integer rules?
The rules of integers state:~ two negatives make a positive number~one negative and one positive makes a negative number~ two positives are simply positive numbers
Can rational numbers be negative?
Any rational positive number is still rational when you make the same number negative.
What conjecture can you make about the sum of the first 10 positive even numbers?
One possible conjecture is that their sum is 27. The conjecture is patently false, but that does not stop it being a conjecture.
Make a conjecture about the sum of the first 25 positive even numbers?
My conjecture is that the sum is 67. A conjecture does not have to be true, or even plausible. You should be able to test it. If it is found to be true then in is no longer a conjecture, if it is found to be false, it is rejected - and so no longer a conjecture. If it cannot be proved either way, it remains a conjecture.
What conjecture can you make about the relationship between multiplying decimals and whole numbers?
You can make whatever conjecture that you want: it does not have to be true or even logical. You could conjecture that the relationship is like the one between the Sun and the Earth!
How to Make a conjecture about the sum of the first 100 odd numbers?
1+3+5+7+9+11 all the way to 100 = ?
How do you make a conjecture?
You can make a conjecture by conducting research or experiments that come out to be unproven. It can appear to be correct but it is actually unproven.
Do 2 positive numbers make a positive answer?
Often, but not always. It depends upon what you do with them. If the numbers are not equal, and you subtract the larger from the smaller, the answer will be negative.

How do you find the quotient of the two numbers when one is positive and one is negative?
Pretend both the numbers are positive, find the quotient as normal and then make it negative.
What is a negative times a positive times a positive?
A negative. If you have a string of positive and negative numbers multiplied together, all you need to find the sign of the answer is to find the parity of the negative numbers. If there are an odd number of negatives then the answer is negative and if there are an even number of negatives then the answer is positive. Remember, positive numbers make no difference to the sign of the answer.
How do you subtract two negative numbers?
2 negatives make a positive
In a fraction if the top and bottom numbers are negative does that make the fraction positive?
Yes.
When does two negatives make a positive?
When two negative real numbers are multiplied together, the product is a positive real number.
