Thank you We sneak in then here's your smoke to

00:05

shore brought to you by assumptions like when you assume

00:09

that people will look the same as their online dating

00:12

profile on trust us we know that doesn't actually work

00:17

Check the following passage article on cdc report on autism

00:21

and tosto tvm us Yes yes cheesy plot evidence Which

00:28

of the following describes an assumption made in the argument

00:31

in article one and your choices right here only boys

00:35

are mumbling Okay it's time to get all semantic up

00:39

in here because there's a difference between an assumption and

00:43

a finding assumptions or taken for granted findings are backed

00:47

by evidence answers being see you're both backed by evidence

00:51

A cdc study demonstrated that boys are more likely to

00:54

be a diagnosed then girls and reports also back up

00:58

01:28

that in mind when your signs at least Which brings

01:33

01:36

The author is assuming that the test results from fourteen

01:39

states can be generalized That what holds true in alabama

01:42

can also hold true in say vermont which makes me

01:46

the correct answer because assumptions are important although sometimes extremely

01:50

dangerous Seriously do a little background checking before you meet 00:01:53.345 --> [endTime] any online matches
