Is the conclusion true or false?

Given the premises, the conclusion of each argument that

follows is it (a) true beyond a reasonable doubt, (b) probably true, or (c) possibly true or possibly false.

5. Since the graduates of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and other Ivy League schools generally score higher on the Graduate Record Examination than students from Central State, it follows that the Ivy League schools do more toward educating their students than Central State does.

6. Michael Jackson has had more plastic surgery than anybody else in California. You can bet he’s had more than anybody in Connecticut!

7. When liquor was banned in 1920, hospitalizations for alcoholism and related diseases plummeted; in 1933, when Prohibition was repealed, alcohol-related illnesses rose sharply again. Legalization of cocaine, heroin, and marijuana would not curb abuse of those substances.

5 – C – The statement says that Ivy League students perform better on a test. That doesn’t mean that the Ivy League is responsible for the scores. Remember, Ivy League universties admit the students that are already the smartest to begin with.

6 – A – I can place on bet on whatever I want. However, if you meant that I would win the bet, I’d say C. There has got to be someone in Connecticut with a plastic surgery problems as bad as Jackson’s. It’s not guaranteed, but we don’t know.

7 – C – We don’t know unless we can find a place that recently criminalize/uncriminalized these drugs and do some research there.
