Studdy Solution

STEP 1

What is this asking? Which of these things are related, but one doesn't *cause* the other? Watch out! Just because two things happen together doesn't mean one causes the other!

STEP 2

1. Analyze Painting Classes and Art Supplies
2. Analyze Sketchbooks and Photo Galleries
3. Analyze Art Museums and Sculptures

STEP 3

If you take more painting classes, you'll probably need more supplies!
More classes *cause* more supply trips.
This isn't our answer.

STEP 4

Someone who likes art might buy sketchbooks *and* go to photo galleries.
One doesn't *cause* the other, they're both caused by a love of art!
This sounds like our answer.

STEP 5

Art museums often have sculptures.
Going to art museums more often *causes* you to see more sculptures.
This isn't our answer either.

STEP 6

Spending more money on sketchbooks is associated with visiting photo galleries more often.
They're both related to liking art, but one doesn't cause the other!
