Exercise 12

Rewrite each of the following arguments in their “premise, premise, conclusion” form, and determine whether the argument is inductive or deductive. If the argument is inductive, determine its strength. If the argument is deductive, use sets to illustrate and determine the validity of the argument, and state whether the argument is valid and whether it is sound.

The first few terms of the sequence are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9. Therefore, the next term will be 11.
