Yknow what tree..? I AM CHEATING!! it’s gonna stay that way cause I’m enjoying life and not worrying abt school :] stay mad lol
bro you're not cool, and he's not cheating. He's just asking for someone to double check his answers before they're submitted.
lol that is true Boba Bunnii. Tree why are you here??? lol
We have different test answers. Be careful ya beautiful losers.
2. D
3. is A or B but i'm thinking B
This is very old, but hopefully I'll be a help to anyone looking at this now.
Number 2 is asking for a statement that is verifiable. Can you verify 100% that potato chips cause a person's skin to break out? You'd have to find that, factually, every person who has ever eaten potato chips has broken out because of that direct link.
The third option is also making a generalization. If something generalizes people AT ALL, it is not a fact. If it makes mass generalizations about food or people or most other products, it is not a fact. There is no way to verify those types of things. Keep that in mind.
The fourth option is a complete opinion. There's no way that's a fact. Using an adjective like "delicious" is in no way verifiable.
That leaves the second option. Can you verify triple cheeseburgers have a high caloric count? Yes. Google it. Look at a menu and see the high number. It's a verifiable fact. You will never find a triple cheeseburger that is 50 calories, it is impossible.
Hopefully this helps people realize what a verifiable fact is, because in the comments no one seems to know.
And on the topic of generalization, question 3.
hasty generalization is defined as a "fallacy in which a conclusion is not logically justified by sufficient or unbiased evidence. Also called insufficient sample, converse accident, faulty generalization, biased generalization, jumping to a conclusion, secundum quid, and neglect of qualifications."
The first option isn't really a generalization, for it doesn't group a large group of people or things into a set category, it's just an opinion.
The second option groups an entire mass of people (police officers) into a stereotype that ALL cops eat doughnuts. It doesn't phrase it as an opinion, it phrases it as a FACT. But is it a fact that all cops love doughnuts?
The third option is verifiable enough. Does her brother like broccoli? Ask him, in this case he doesn't. Does she? Yes she does. So come to your own conclusion, this isn't generalizating anyone.
The fourth option is once again easy enough to verify. It's just a declarative statement. She goes jogging every morning. Not generalizating because it's believed she does go jogging. No logic is needed.
Come to your own conclusion, the answer is simple. I won't go through and explain every question, but take time to think about definitions in these questions. KEYWORDS. verifiable fact. hasty generalization. think about these things.
These are right.
1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.
Good job!
what are you going to do about it cry all you want it's not going to change
The questions change consistently, I recommend searching them up individually. its time consuming but it builds a better chance of a good grade. a word of advice, never use test answers that consist of only letter choice answers. only use answers that are typed out.
what do you think Ms. Sue?

Emotional intelligence is increasingly becoming a mainstream importance in relationships. Defined by helpguide as the “ability to understand, use, and manage your own emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict,” emotional intelligence centers in reading emotions in guiding your relationships with others.
This is particularly important in your business: with team members, employees, clients, and in networking. Emotional intelligence not only has the capacity to better relationships, but expand your own influence over those you have relationships with (which is especially important in client or employee relationships). Here are three ways to engage emotional intelligence to better your relationships and expand your influence.
... oh...my...
I’m sorry y’all but some of y’all are ridiculous. Like fr. We all need help every once and awhile but for those of you who just sit here and wait for others to contribute their answers are ridiculous. I bet you 8 out of 10 of those people probably failed those tests just to give you the right answers. I don’t know how y’all’s parents raised you but have some respect. It’s not that hard. I mean it isn’t like Connections Academy doesn’t allow resets, because they do. If it makes it easier for you guy on all the answers then write the right answers down and ask for a reset. Anyways, I’m done with this rant. Peace y’all.
You make a good point. While it's okay to ask for help and clarification, relying solely on others to provide you with answers is not a sustainable or productive way to learn. It's important to take responsibility for your own education and make an effort to understand and engage with the material. Practicing good academic ethics and integrity will not only benefit you in the long run, but also show respect for yourself and others.

For feck sake nobody here is being clear what the answers are,
I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble finding clear answers. As an AI language model, I cannot guarantee that any specific answer keys are correct, as it is important that students learn the material for themselves in order to succeed. I suggest studying the material thoroughly and attempting the questions to the best of your ability, and seeking further help if needed.

Thank you Ms. Sue.
You're welcome, Rynn.
It's important to do your own work and learn the material for your own benefit, rather than just trying to pass a class. Academic honesty is essential in achieving success and personal growth. Cheating may seem attractive in the moment, but it ultimately only harms yourself and undermines the value of your education. It's never too late to start doing the right thing and working hard to achieve your goals.
Think about them. I'll be glad to check your answers.
