Therefore, she got on the plane.” The validity of an argument can be determined using a truth table. We proceed as follows: Write the argument in symbolic form. Construct a truth table that shows the truth value of each premise and the truth value of the conclusion for all combinations of truth values of the simple statements. If the conclusion is true in every row of the truth table in which all the premises are true, the argument is valid. If the conclusion is false in any row in which all of the premises are true, the argument is invalid.

We will consider given argument as the statements and proceed to it. Then we will use the logic…
