Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Inductive validity means that when one reasons inductively, such reasoning will contain three elements: a premise (the first guiding point), supporting evidence (what makes you believe the premise is true), and a conclusion that is true and viable (valid) AS FAR AS YOU KNOW. The validity of the reasoning is based upon the strength of your supporting evidence, which makes your premise more likely to be true, and hence, your conclusion to be more than likely true.

Inductive reasoning is useful in most field of study because it provides evidence for a belief, even though that belief may someday be found to be false.
