Q5 model answer — type the definition + example you would write on the exam.

Answer

Inductive reasoning infers a general rule from specific examples; unlike deduction it is not truth-preserving. Example: every swan observed is white, so induce that all swans are white (one black swan would refute it).

Three required beats: general-from-specific, the not-truth-preserving contrast with deduction, and a concrete example. This is the verbatim Q5 deliverable.
