Question

Annabella Works in a deli and has been tracking the daily sales of different items over several months Annabelle found that when there was an increase in the number of cups of hot chocolate sold the number of cups of coffee sold also increased similarly where there was a decrease in the number of cups of hot chocolate sold the number of cups of coffee also decrease which of the following is a valid conclusion

Answer 1

What are the conclusions?
I would assume that even though both hot chocolate and coffee increased and decreased at the same time, they are not a correlation since one doesn’t cause the other to increase/decrease

Answer 2

The increase in the sale of hot chocolate is correlated to, but not caused by, the sale of coffee.
