Question

Select the answer that best classifies the argument.

Answer 1

Answer:

c. Deductive, analogy

Explanation:

In this scenario, the argument being made would be classified as a deductive analogy. An analogy basically compares two things together in order to explain an idea, most of the time these two things have something in common that allows that idea to be better understood. In this scenario, they are comparing a rabid dog and an unexploded bomb. Since the unexploded bomb is the object that the rabid dog is being compared to it would be considered the conclusion, and since the conclusion is being applied first in the second part of the argument you are therefore using deductive logic.
