Respuesta :

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation does not imply causality. Correlation shows whether and how strongly pairs of variables are related.

Causality shows a situation between two events where one event is affected by the other

We would be skeptical of this survey because it is very difficult to assume that people who owned a radio were more likely to be declared insane and put into an insane asylum as listening to the radio cannot cause insanity unless proven.
