Complete the conjecture based on the pattern you observe in the examples below:

Conjecture: The sum of any two odd numbers is ___

1 + 1 = 2 9 + 11 = 20

1 + 5 = 6 13 + 21 = 34

7 + 9 = 16 101 + 103 = 204


Conjecture: The product of any two numbers is ___

1 . 1 = 1 9 . 11 = 99

1 . 3 = 3 13 . 11 = 143

3 . 7 = 21 101 . 103 = 10,403


Conjecture: The product of a number (x-1) and the number (x+1) is always equal to ___

3 . 5 = 4² - 1 7 . 9 = 8² - 1

4 . 6 = 5² - 1 6 . 8 = 7² - 1

5 . 7 = 6² - 1 8 . 10 = 9² - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the writing and spacing of the problem description is difficult to understand.

but there is no mystery. look at the examples.

all of them

3×5 = 15 = 16 - 1 = 4² - 1

4×6 = 24 = 25 - 1 = 5² - 1

5×7 = 35 = 36 - 1 = 6² - 1

6×8 = 48 = 49 - 1 = 7² - 1

7×9 = 63 = 64 - 1 = 8² - 1

8×10 = 80 = 81 - 1 = 9² - 1

so, what does this look like ?

(x-1)×(x+1) is always equal to (x² - 1)
