Answer: correlation vs. causation

Explanation:

Correlation assesses the relationship between variables and can be in the same direction,  where the increase in one exists as the same time as an increase in the other variable or inverse where an increase in one variable occurs when there is a decrease in the second variable. However, this correlation does not indicate causation.

Causation signifies that one variable is responsible for the occurrence of  an event in the other variable. Clearly, there is no cause and effect between the number of mules and doctorate degrees in a state. Here, there is a correlation but a fundamental causative factor is absent between the two events.

Inducing someone to break a contract with a third party is tortious conduct. True or false
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: The correct answer is <em>True.</em>

Explanation:

Tortious conduct is also known as tortious interference. This occurs when a person or group interferes with a contract of another person that will cause financial harm.

A third party can convince someone to leave a deal right before the deal is legally bound. The third party can offer incentives to the group or person to leave that deal. This can also happen during a sale of goods or property when the person or group has not yet signed the papers but are in the last stages of negotiation.

The most common form of tortious conduct is when a person uses blackmail, offers a lower price, or refuses to transport goods to get someone to break their contract with the third party. If there is enough proof of this, a judge can determine if there was tortious conduct.
