MGT 3211 Midterm: EXAM 1 WITH ANSWERS.doc
Document Summary
In the space provided, answer each of these questions with one complete, grammatically correct sentence: how can an argument the premises and conclusion of which are true, be unsound?. If the argument is not valid in which it gives no support for thinking the conclusion is true, regardless if both the premises and conclusion are true, the argument will be unsound. An argument must be valid in that the premises is true and the conclusion follows from the premises and is also true. An argument consists of a premises of fact and a conclusion, in which the conclusion must follow from the premises. In order for an argument to be sound: the argument must be valid and the premises must be true. The conclusion here concerns not what people believe, but whether the conclusion really is true from following the premises. If an argument is unsound, then it fails to provide any reason for thinking the conclusion is true.
