Answer 3

I know what correlation and causation is. Im having trouble understanding whether or not this is correlation or causation. Throwing a bowling ball with force to get a higher score might happen. but you have to be accurate with the throw while doing it. So with that in mind would it be a correlation instead?

Answer 4

Well it would be correlation because we don't know if they are truly related to one another there is just the potential that they could be related or at least I think if I am understanding this right

Answer 5

Anyways, it is causation because causation is when something causes something else to happen. Correlation is basically just the linear function. Causation is actually the actual when x increases by this, y decreases by that. So, in this case, when the bowling ball is rolled with a greater force, the bowling ball score will be higher. So this is causation. :3
