Question

question 12 (mandatory) (3 points)
read the short story, emotion through action, before answering the following question:
explain the wifes inductive reasoning for determining her husbands level of safety at work.
premise 1: the wife assumes that her husband works a desk job.
premise 2: ____________.
conclusion: the wife assumes that her husband has a safe job.

Explanation:

Inductive reasoning involves making generalizations based on specific observations or premises. Here, the wife starts with the specific premise that her husband has a desk - job. To reach the conclusion that he has a safe job, a likely second premise could be that desk - jobs are generally considered safe. This is a common - sense generalization she is making to connect the first premise to the conclusion.

Answer:

Premise 2: Desk - jobs are generally considered safe.
