16. A student asks why he can't just make "random guesses" rather than "intelligent guesses" when using the
guess-and-check problem-solving strategy. What is the correct response to this question?
Choose the correct response below.

A. Intelligent guesses must be used with the guess-and-check method because a random guess will never
result in the correct answer.

B.Random guessing is actually more effective than intelligent guessing because helps students systematically zero in on the exact answer. Using intelligent guesses, this is not possible.

C.Random guessing is just as effective as making educated guesses when using the guess-and-check-method of problem solving.

D.Intelligent guesses will help students systematically zero in on the exact answer because successive guesses can be based on the results given by the previous guess. This is not possible with random
guessing.
