A couple things that help me when looking for inferences, get really good at representing rules in conditional logic, and chain as many rules up as you can. After every represented rule at least think about the contrapositive and see how it interact…

What specifically about conditional mapping are you having trouble with? For really long sentences that have conditional indicators, I try to first really understand what it is saying and parse it out then dumb it down so that it can be represent in…

The way I approach an assumption question is by "looking for the puzzle piece that completes the puzzle" For example if we have a premise and a conclusion then we have to assume that said premise leads to said conclusion, after that you just find th…

I don't think the stimulus is claiming that the universe is younger per say. Rather I believe it is claiming that the previously mentioned star's age was inaccurate. The author of the argument uses brightness to as their reasoning to prove his fact …
