The differing meanings of "valid inference" and "warranted inference" are closely related to the differing purposes of deductive and inductive arguments - the purpose of deductive being to prove; the purpose of inductive to make the conclusion most probable. Look up the words "valid" and "warranted." Each of these words, you will find, has what is known as a lexical definition - that is just the dictionary definition of the word. Words also have a certain connotations - meanings that go beyond their lexical definitions; associated ideas and concepts - think of terms such a "fur baby" as the name for a pet. Briefly discuss how the lexical definitions and connotations of "valid" and "warranted" can help us understand the differing purposes of deductive and inductive arguments.
