I'm terrible at math
@Kainui please
Correlation is an association between the two variables of eating the berries and rashes. Causation is stronger and means that eating the white berries is the cause of Jack's rashes.
Jack has decided that the berries CAUSE the rashes. The question is asking for a statement that supports CORRELATION. That is tricky.
I would opt for B. Jack gets the rashes only when he eats berries from his yard. There is an association, a correlation, but we do not know what would happen if Jack ate the berries from another yard or if he bought berries at the store and ate them. At this point, we know that there is a correlation between Jack's eating berries out of his yard and then getting a rash. For all we know, Jack's berry patch may be surrounded by poison ivy plants he touches while picking berries. And, it's the poison ivy giving him the rashes, not the berries. Do check with somebody else. This is just my interpretation. I am not saying that it is correct. @ILovePuppiesLol
i agree :) @Directrix thanks :)
