Questions: Consider the following argument: 1. Statement: All vineyard owners grow grapes. 2. Statement: Anthea grows grapes. 3. Conclusion: Anthea owns a vineyard. Draw an Euler diagram for this argument and determine whether it is valid or invalid. Select the answer and correct reason from the list below. Select the correct answer below: Valid because Anthea is a member of both the set "people who grow grapes" and the subset "vineyard owners". Valid because Anthea owns a vineyard. Invalid because we do not not know if Anthea is a member of both the set "people who grow grapes" and the subset "vineyard owners". Invalid because it is not a syllogistic argument.

Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Analyze the Statements

The first statement is "All vineyard owners grow grapes." This implies that the set of vineyard owners is a subset of the set of people who grow grapes.

Step 2: Analyze the Conclusion

The conclusion is "Anthea owns a vineyard." However, the second statement only tells us that "Anthea grows grapes," which does not necessarily mean she owns a vineyard.

Step 3: Determine Validity

The argument is invalid because we do not know if Anthea is a member of both the set "people who grow grapes" and the subset "vineyard owners." Just because Anthea grows grapes does not mean she owns a vineyard.
