Question

State if the arguement is valid or not.

a.) All desks are functional. But my table is not a desk. Therefore, my table is not functional.

b.) All leprechauns are vegetarians. No vegetarians speak Esperanto. People who speak Esperanto are no fun at parties. I am fun at parties! Therefore, I am not a leprechaun.

Neither A nor B look valid to me. For B i attemped to use a diagram to establish the invalidity but, I'm not sure and need a proper explanation and for A looks like an inverse error but, again I'm not sure, I could use a proper explanation.

Explanation / Answer

a) false , because desk table can be functional or not .No inforation is given about table

b) false, because if u are having fun at the party then u can be leprechaun
