Answer:

D) It is not really possible to tell if video game playing improves school grades.

Explanation:

In this example, a logical fallacy that is contained in the researcher's statement is the assumption that playing video games improves school grades. However, he provides no evidence that leads to us to accept this justification. He tells us that it is difficult to find kids who earn poor grades but do well in video games. However, one is not necessarily the cause of the other one. For example, it is possible that children who play video games are wealthier than those who do not. This might mean that they also benefit from tutors or from cultural experiences that allow them to get better grades in school.

How have young people used activism to push for stronger gun laws?
Alborosie

Answer:

Explanation:

No one thinks it will be easy. Gun violence in America is one of those problems that can feel truly hopeless. The U.S. has only 4.4% of the world’s population, yet it accounts for roughly 42% of the world’s guns, according to the comprehensive 2007 Small Arms Survey. And roughly 31% of the world’s mass shooters are American, according to a University of Alabama study. Even as mass-shooting deaths mount, our Second Amendment has made gun rights a third-rail issue: roughly 90% of Americans agree on “common-sense” solutions like universal background checks, yet absolutists stand in the way of any meaningful action.

What is the meaning of the phrase cost-effective in the first paragraph of this passage? A) working hard for the money you earn
Varvara68 [4.7K]
The meaning of the phrase cost-effective in the first paragraph of this passage is C. getting the most for the money you spend.
If you insulate and seal air leaks in your home on time, you won't have to think about that in the future. Thus, if you pay a lot of money now, you will save a lot more in the future than if you didn't insulate, and then had to fix stuff around the house all the time, which would waste so much of your money.
