What is deductive reasoning

English
2 answers:
pychu [463]3 years ago
8 0

Deductive reasoning is the process os using previously accepted statements to draw a conclusion.

I'll show you an example.

A detective determines that <em>the person who committed the crime is a relative of the victim and walks with a limp. Since the mayor of the town is the only person who is a relative of the victim and walks with a limp</em>, the detective uses deductive reasoning to determine that the mayor of the town must have committed the crime.

The previously accepted statements are in italics and the conclusion is shown in bold.

Should illegal immigrants be granted residency?
Anna11 [10]

legal status and citizenship are also about the economic health of the nation as a whole. As our study demonstrates, legal status and a road map to citizenship for the unauthorized will bring about significant economic gains in terms of growth, earnings, tax revenues, and jobs—all of which will not occur in the absence of immigration reform or with reform that creates a permanent sub-citizen class of residents. We also show that the timing of reform matters: The sooner we provide legal status and citizenship, the greater the economic benefits are for the nation.
