A grocery store conducted a survey. It showed that when customers buy less cereal, it does not indicate a change in the amount of milk they purchase. What can we conclude?

A.There is no correlation between amount of cereal bought and amount of milk purchased.

B.There is a correlation between amount of cereal bought and amount of milk purchased. However, there is no causation. This is because there is likely a decrease in the amount of milk purchased with a decrease in the amount of cereal bought.

C.There is a correlation between amount of cereal bought and amount of milk purchased. There may or may not be causation. Further studies would have to be done to determine this.

Answer: A, there is no correlation between amount of cereal bought and amount of milk purchased.

Step-by-step explanation: It's A because in problem said that when the customers bought less cereal, nothing changed when they bought the milk. So even when the customers bought less cereal, they still bought the same amount of milk. Then, there is no correlation between how much cereal and milk the customers purchase.
