Evaluate the following argument in accordance with the criteria discussed in the text.The packages that we gave our friend Debbie are undamaged, while the packages we sent through Ted suffered damage. We learned a lesson: Don't let Ted handle any packages. He is extremely careless.
What will be an ideal response?
Common variable principle. (Notice that the first claim of the passage is equivalent to "All packages that suffered damage are packages taken by Ted...."

Our packer might consider whether the materials that were damaged were more fragile than the others-that could be another relevant factor.
