Directions: Sometimes we conclude about characteristics of a general phenomenon by studying or analyzing characteristics of a particular phenomenon. Below are given such inductive arguments. The generalization is given first, followed by a particular statement. You have to find out whether the numbered particular statement strongly confirms, vaguely hints, contradicts, or is irrelevant to the generalisation. Read the question below and answer accordingly.

1. I have never seen a $500 men`s suit made of polyester or other synthetic material.
2. I sometimes see silk blouses at very low prices. What type of support does statement 1 provide for this generalization?
