Answer:

The definition of a credible source can change depending on the discipline, but in general, for academic writing, a credible source is one that is unbiased and is backed up with evidence. Is the source in-depth (more than a page or two), with an abstract, a reference list, and documented research or data?

Step-by-step explanation:

Make sure you have a source for your source, (if your teachers gave you one) And make sure its long and informal, Grammarly helps.
