Decide whether the statement makes sense. Explain your reasoning.Your conditional deductive argument is valid. Therefore, it must be an example of "Affirming the Hypothesis."

What will be an ideal response?


Does not make sense. There are four basic structures for conditional arguments. Two of them, "Affirming the Conclusion" and "Denying the Hypothesis," are invalid. The other two, "Affirming the Hypothesis" and "Denying the Conclusion," are valid. Since it might be an example of ""Denying the Conclusion," it is not true that it must be an example of "Affirming the Hypothesis." (Explanations will vary.)
