Question

Identifying arguments. Identify the kind of argument we find here: This session, I'm struggling with math, which has always been my hardest subject. I'm taking statistics next session, and I bet that's going to be similar to a math class. Therefore, I will also struggle in that class, too.

This argument is a deductive, categorical argument

This argument is an inductive analogical argument

This is a deductive truth-functional argument

This is an inductive, causal argument (WRONG ANSWER)

This is not an argument

Explanation / Answer

The answer to the following question is B. This argument is an inductive analogical argument.

The reasoning behind the following can be considered to be borne from the analogy that since we do not know maths, statistics is going to be hard as well. This is because this statement infers similarity between two different entities which hasn't yet been proven or observed to be able to find the possible results to conclude the argument.
