Question

An observational study shows that 8th grade students who are taking music lessons also score an average of 12 points higher on a math test than students who are not taking music lessons. What can you conclude from this study

Answer 1

Explanation:

You cannot conclude from this study that students who participate in music lessons are better at maths than students who don't. It might just be pure coincidences that students who are smarter in maths take music lessons.

Basically, you cannot conclude anything from this yet.
