Evidence and Reasoning

1. Upon entering her home a little before 5 pm, Charlotte saw unwashed dishes in the sink and the mess, more than likely made by her dog, on the floor. The door to the backyard was open where Barkey could be seen chasing a ball. A winter coat was hung on the coat hanger, and a pair of winter boots was left by the door. Charlotte knew that her messy little sister was home.

Why is this passage an example of the use of logical evidence?

The dog is playing outside in the winter season.

Charlotte reaches a conclusion based on general truths.

There is no scientific proof for the sister's presence.

Charlotte analyzes the mess to blame it on her sister.
