According to the neighborhood association's rules, any resident who wishes to use the community pool must pay an annual fee of 100 fee, they will definitely be allowed to use the community pool this summer.
Which of the following best describes the flaw in the reasoning above?
- treats a condition that is required for a certain outcome as though it were enough to guarantee that outcomeCevap
- Bassumes that because a condition is sufficient to bring about a result, the absence of that condition guarantees the absence of the result
- Crelies on information that goes beyond the provided facts of the community rules
- Dconfuses a condition that merely accompanies an action with the actual cause of that action
- Efails to distinguish between the literal and the intended meaning of a key phrase
Cevap
The argument flawed because it treats a condition that is required for a certain outcome as though it were enough to guarantee that outcome.
The argument explicitly states that paying the fee is something a resident 'must' do (a necessary condition) to use the pool. It then concludes that because the Smiths met this one requirement, they are guaranteed access. This is logically flawed because meeting a necessary condition does not mean all sufficient criteria have been met; there might be other rules the Smiths must follow to use the pool.
