Question

If A is highly correlated with B, then which of the following must be

true?
A caused B.
B caused A
Some third thing (C) caused A and B.
None of the above.

Answer 1

Answer:none of the above

Explanation:None of the above. Correlation alone does not imply causation. It is possible for A and B to be highly correlated without either one causing the other. Additionally, there could be a third factor (C) that is causing both A and B, but this is not necessarily true in all cases of high correlation between A and B.
