Which correlation is most likely a causation?

the positive correlation between the height of a person and the number of times a person bumps their head on a low ceiling

the positive correlation between the number of socks and number of shoes in a home

the positive correlation between the number of crimes in a city and the number of cars in the city

the positive correlation between the sales of apples and sales of oranges at a farmer’s market

If you're in K-12 then your answer is A.) the positive correlation between the height of a person and the number of times a person bumps their head on a low ceiling.

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
