logic
What are the two types of argument/reasoning

Deductive Reasoning
Deductive reasoning is also known as __________
Bottom Up Logic
A deductive reasoning is calid just in case the truth would absolutely guarantee the ________ of its conclusion
truth
It refers to the statement being impossible to be true and the conclusion to false.
Deductive Validity
Is derived from mathematics field of deduction and it can be solved by using d. r. and by organizing the data in a given situation.
logic puzzles
This kind of reasoning gives you a reasonable probability whose conclusions follow, or appear to follow probably and it begins with specifics and concludes with generalizations.
Inductive Reasoning
Inductive Reasoning is also known as _________-
Up Down Logic
______________ refers to the premises being possible to be true and the conclusion to be false.
inductive validity
Inductive reasoning is one where the conclusion (does/does not) necessarily follow from the premises, but rather, it probably follows from premises.
