Determine whether each of the following arguments is an example of inductive reasoning or deductive reasoning. You go fishing, and every time you fish in a certain hole you never catch anything. You conclude that there are no fish in that hole.

Try to recall a scene on a movie/TV series or a plot in a novel that exhibits the use of inductive or deductive reasoning. On the space provided below, write down the argument and how it was solved. Determine which reasoning was used and explain your answer.

1. Inductive reasoning starts from known facts and aims to generalize them to different systems where they might be acceptable. Deductive reasoning is a form of "if X is true, then Y is true." It goes from a known and applies it to a specific scenario. We can conclude that to build a theory, we use ... reasoning, but to test it/test a hypothesis, we use ... reasoning

Which option is an example of inductive reasoning?A.Storms come every May. Therefore, storms will not come next May.B.Continents are large. Africa is a continent. Therefore, Africa is large.C.Lemons are fruit. Apples are fruit. Therefore, apples are lemons.D.Ty gets in trouble weekly. Therefore, he will get in trouble this week.

Which option is an example of deductive reasoning?A.All my math teachers have been women. Therefore, my next math teacher will be a woman.B.All fish have gills. A salmon is a fish, so it must live underwater.C.All squirrels in my neighborhood are brown. Therefore, all squirrels must be brown.D.All applicants must pass a test.
