Question

current attempt in progress
diego states that he has found a very strong correlation between two variables (a and b). based on that information, diego can conclude that
○ b causes a
○ as a changes, b also changes
○ a causes b
○ a causes b and that b causes a

Explanation:

Correlation measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables. It does not imply causation. So a strong correlation between A and B means that as one variable (A) changes, the other (B) tends to change in a related way, but we can't conclude causation (like A causes B, B causes A, or mutual causation) from correlation alone. So the correct option is the one stating that as A changes, B also changes.

Answer:

as A changes, B also changes
