State a supported pattern conclusion
Northstar's sample counts are 120, 135, 150, and 165. If the proposed +15 rule continues once, which conclusion is most defensible?
Mastery reasoning record
Separate the calculated extension from the real-world limit
- Question
- Extend the shown sample-count pattern once.
- Evidence
- Every displayed transition adds 15.
- Result
- 165 + 15 = 180 under the proposed rule.
- Limit
- Confirm the real process before assuming it continues.
A defensible conclusion states both what follows under the proposed rule and what the finite evidence cannot guarantee.
