Match each flawed argument (which lacks a necessary premise to be logically valid) with the sufficient assumption that, if added to the premises, would allow its conclusion to be properly drawn.
- Only candidates with a significant background in international relations were considered for the ambassadorial position. Ms. Vance was considered for the position. Thus, it is certain that Ms. Vance is fluent in at least three languages.All persons possessing a significant background in international relations are fluent in at least three languages.
- Several of the medieval manuscripts found in the northern monastery feature a unique dialect. This specific dialect was not written by any scribe native to the northern province. Hence, some of the manuscripts found in the northern monastery must have been transported there from outside the province.Any document featuring a dialect not written by native scribes of a given region must have been transported there from outside that region.
- If the regulatory bill passes, the cost of raw materials will rise. If the cost of raw materials rises, smaller production firms will be compelled to merge. Consequently, if the regulatory bill passes, there will inevitably be a subsequent drop in the sector's innovation metrics.Whenever smaller production firms are compelled to merge, there is a subsequent drop in the sector's innovation metrics.
Cevap
The correct matches pair the ambassadorial argument with the rule connecting international background to fluency, the manuscript argument with the rule about non-native dialects implying outside transportation, and the regulatory bill argument with the rule linking firm mergers to innovation drops.
Each correct pair successfully identifies the unstated premise that mathematically guarantees the truth of the conclusion when added to the existing premises. The ambassadorial argument requires a direct link from background to fluency. The manuscript argument requires a universal rule linking non-native origins to outside transportation. The regulatory argument requires the final link in a conditional chain from merging to an innovation drop.
