Minimization
In mathematics, traditional optimization problems are typically expressed in terms of minimization. When we talk about minimizing or maximizing a function, we refer to the maximum and minimum possible values of that function. This can be expressed in ter…
Maxima and Minima
The extreme points of a function are the maximum and the minimum points of the function. A maximum is attained when the function takes the maximum value and a minimum is attained when the function takes the minimum value.
Derivatives
A derivative means a change. Geometrically it can be represented as a line with some steepness. Imagine climbing a mountain which is very steep and 500 meters high. Is it easier to climb? Definitely not! Suppose walking on the road for 500 meters. Which …
Concavity
In calculus, concavity is a descriptor of mathematics that tells about the shape of the graph. It is the parameter that helps to estimate the maximum and minimum value of any of the functions and the concave nature using the graphical method. We use the …

Chapter MPS, Problem 12.4MPS
To determine

Verify the statement shows a correlation or causation.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 12.4MPS

The statement is correlation.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Men who have beards are happier than mean who do not.

Calculation:

There can be other reasons to be happy, this is just one reason for the men to be happy.

So, the two events are related but not the direct cause of the happiness.

Hence, the statement is correlation.
