Does this follow the rules of logic according to math?:
Premise : I want to be a robot when I grow up
Premise : I will never grow up
Conclusion : I will never be a robot
not a valid syllogism
saying what you want if you grow up
says nothing about what happens if you do not grow up.
Thank you!
To determine if this argument follows the rules of logic according to math, we need to evaluate the logical coherence and validity of the argument.
The argument you provided seems to be expressing a personal desire to become a robot when someone grows up, combined with the assertion that the person will never grow up. The conclusion drawn is that the person will never be a robot.
The logical structure of the argument can be analyzed using modus ponens, a basic valid form of deductive reasoning. Modus ponens follows this pattern:
Premise 1: If A, then B.
Premise 2: A.
Conclusion: Therefore, B.
However, the argument you presented does not fit into this pattern. It does not clearly establish a conditional relationship between the premises, nor does it provide a clear logical connection between the premises and the conclusion. Therefore, we cannot determine the validity of this argument using formal logic.
In the context of math, logic can be used to evaluate the validity of arguments. However, the argument you provided does not adhere to the logical rules of math as it lacks clear logical connections and does not follow a valid deductive reasoning structure.
