Correlation
Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.
Linear Correlation
A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.
Regression Analysis
Regression analysis is a statistical method in which it estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variable. In simple terms dependent variable is called as outcome variable and independent variable is called as p…

To determine

To find: The given situation illustrates correlation but not causation, or causation.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 11PPS

There is negative correlation and no causation.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Jane compared the places to eat in her town and found a negative correlation between the number of fast food places and upscale restaurants.

Assuming that Jane collected data from different places of the town, it can be conferred that more is the number of fast food places in a locality, less is the number of upscale restaurants there. But a profound direct cause and effect situation can’t be established between the two, as lesser number of upscale restaurants where there are more fast food places might be linked to the locality, demographic and financial status of the inhabitants of that particular location.

So, the situation is a negative correlation and no causation.
