write an outline that shows how you could structure the arguement you are crafting either inductively or deductively. If you are using induction, cite at least four specifics that lead to your genralization (claim). If using deduction break the overall reasoning of the essay into a syllogism with both a major and a minor premise and a conclusion.?

Answer:

An inductive argument is the one that, from the observation of a

property defined in a sufficient number of individuals of a

determined class, generalizes in the conclusion the property

observed and attributed to all members of that same class.

This generalization applies to both the observed cases and to

all of its kind not observed.

Unlike deductive arguments, the conclusion of which is not

offers new information and therefore its conclusions are necessary,

inductive arguments in their conclusion offer us information

new, that is, information not included in the premises, and therefore its

Conclusion is likely. What is that new information? The one that

refers to cases not observed, but from which we infer

they also own the property attributed to the cases observed; from

In this way we generalize the properties observed in all

members of that class, including cases not observed. This is the

information not included in the premises and that forces us to

put the word "probably" before our conclusion, because

It is possible that, when reviewing cases not included in the

premises, these do not comply with the attributed property and then the

conclusion is not true; that's why we just presume that the

Conclusion is likely and not necessary.
