HW Help: Association VS Causation1. Look at Tues/Wed HW to help you find an equation & the correlation coefficient, r.2 5. Make sure you list a reason why you chose your answer!!2. Positive correlation, causation3. No correlation4. Negative correlation, causation5. No correlation69. Make sure you explain your reasoning!6. Association causation cannot be determined from a survey. Also, there are many causes for nearsightedness! 7. Causation it was a controlled experiment and smoking can cause lung cancer.8 & 9.
