MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER
Over the past decade, there has been a strong positive correlation between teacher salaries and prescription drug costs.
(a) Do you think paying teachers more causes prescription drugs to cost more? Explain your answer.
Yes. A strong correlation implies causation.
Yes. A strong correlation does not imply causation.
No. A strong correlation implies causation.
No. A strong correlation does not imply causation.
(b) What lurking variables might be causing the increase in one or both of the variables? Explain your answer. (Enter
your free-form answer using as many characters as necessary.)
a strong correlation does not mean causation because there may
be other factors in play. For instance, the cost of certain
chemicals needed for the drugs may have risen due to a shortage
of supply or the demand may have risen because it was determined
that a certain drug helped cure a particular ailment.
