Answer:

Denying the consequent

Explanation:

In denying the consequent is an inference rule or a form of an argument that is usually valid.it is used when a statement is affirm to be true then the reverse, antonym or opposite of the statement holds true also( contrapositive). It has a Latin Name called " Modus tollens" which implies" a way that denies" when a consequent is denied, we also implies that the antecedent is also denied. Example I say if John is brilliant,he will have the answer to this question of ours but when John does not have the answer, we can say the opposite that John is not brilliant (that is John is dull).

Question Options:

a. Affirming the consequent

b. Affirming the antecedent

c. Denying the antecedent

d. Denying the consequent

Answer: DENYING THE ANTECEDENT.

Denying the antecedent also known as inverse error or fallacy of the inverse is a pattern of reasoning which is always wrong, due to a flaw in the structure of the argument inferring the inverse from the original statement.

It is represented by;

If P, then Q.

Therefore, if not P, then not Q.

Arguments of this form do not give good reason to establish their conclusions, even if their premises are true.

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Because they united all world zones and people worked together.

Explanation:

European exploration took place in the middle of the 15th century and the end of the 15th century because it was at that time that Europeans had the need to look for new trade routes. This era is called the "era of the discoveries", as it allowed for intense marine explorations, carried out mainly by the Spanish and Portuguese, allowing the discovery and creation of commercial relations with Africa, Asia and America, always seeking to enrich the European nations and makes them strong.

These explorations only ended when Europeans managed to map the entire globe, allowing them to unite all areas of the world and people worked together to enrich their countries.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Here, the researcher does not form a part of a group and/or even becomes a member of it but deliberately stays apart from it. His main goal is to observe the behavior of such a group in a natural setting and without interfering himself.

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

1 ton = 2,000 pounds

2 tons = 4,000 pounds

The first elephant weight = 2 tons (4,000 pounds)

The second elephant weight = 3,495 pounds

The difference between the weight of the elephants = 4,000 pounds - 3,495 pounds

The first stage of psychosexual development is the oral stage, traversing from birth until the age of one year, wherein the newborn child's mouth is the focal point of libidinal delight got from the joy of nourishing at the mother's breast, and from the oral investigation of his or her condition, i.e. the propensity to put things in the mouth.
