**In Exercises 1–6, describe the pattern. Then write or draw the next two numbers, letters, or figures.**

1. **1, -2, 3, -4, 5, …**  
   Describe and extend the alternating sign pattern.

2. **0, 2, 6, 12, 20, …**  
   Identify the quadratic sequence pattern.

3. **Y, X, W, V, …**  
   Recognize the reverse alphabetical sequence.

4. **A, D, G, J, M, …**  
   Identify the alphabetical sequence with increments of three.

5. **Figures (squares, then triangle, hexagon, …)**  
   Identify the pattern of increasing polygon sides.

6. **Cubes Arrangement**  
   Extend the spatial pattern based on the given 3D arrangement.

**In Exercises 7–10, make and test a conjecture about the given quantity.**

7. The sum of an even integer and an odd integer.

8. The product of any two even integers.

9. The quotient of a number and its reciprocal.

10. The quotient of two negative integers.

---

**In Exercises 11–14, find a counterexample to show that the conjecture is false.**

11. The product of two positive numbers is always greater than either number.

12. If \( n \) is a nonzero integer, then \( n + \frac{1}{n} \) is always greater than 1.

13. If two angles are supplements of each other, then one of the angles must be acute.

14. A line divides \(\overline{MN}\) into two line segments. So, the line is a segment bisector of \(\overline{MN}\).
