Question: 1 / 575

What is the primary function of a conclusion in an argument?

Cannot Be False

Must Be True

The primary function of a conclusion in an argument is that it must be true. In an argument, the conclusion is the statement that the premises are meant to support or lead to. A conclusion is considered successful when it logically follows from the premises provided in the argument. Therefore, the correct answer is B - Must Be True.

Option A (Cannot Be False) is incorrect because conclusions can indeed be false if they do not logically follow from the premises.

Option C (Logical Opposition) is incorrect because the main function of a conclusion is not to oppose or contradict the premises, but to logically follow from them.

Option D (What is a premise?) is incorrect because it does not address the function of a conclusion in an argument.
