This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.

Wei-Chin designed a self-report inventory to measure how intimate partners express affection and hostility toward each other. The inventory is a list of positive behaviors (e.g., back rubs, holding hands) and negative behaviors (e.g., slamming doors, raising voices). After having a wide range of couples complete the inventory, Wei-Chin finds that happy couples endorse all the affection items and unhappy couples endorse all the hostile items. Which of the following problems prevents him from concluding that happy couples exchange more affectionate behaviors than unhappy couples?

1. sentiment override

2. item-overlap problem

3. correlation does not imply causation

4. social desirability effect

Answer: 3. Correlation does not imply causation.

Explanation:

Correlation is a statistical technique that evaluates how much two variables are linearly related, meaning they change together. However, two variables being correlated does not necessarily mean that one causes the other. Causation states that any change in a variable will cause a change in another variable.

The fact that happy couples endorsed all the positive behaviors, and unhappy couples the negative ones, shows that there´s a correlation, but it doesn't necessarily mean that unhappiness causes couples to exchange more negative behaviors, or vice-versa.

"Conflict never brings development." Justify the statement.​
Orlov [11]

Its true

It will never bring development because you will never have an agreement. You need to have the same purpose so you can work together and have some progress. But it can also be wrong because what if you have two teams working on different projects? Your teams have a disagreement, but both are developing different solutions to the same problem. Still developing but with a different idea. It all depends on your perspective.

If a store manager wanted to know how many customers arrived at his/her store each hour, which process metric would he/she need?
Naddika [18.5K]

If a store manager wanted to know how many customers arrived at his/her store each hour, the process metric would he/she need is the flow rate.

The flow measurement used to quantify the movement of bulk fluids is called flow rate. A known area's fluid velocity can be used to calculate flow. Tracer methods can be used to determine the flow rate from changes in dye or radioisotope concentration in very large flows. The volume of fluid that moves per unit of time is known as flow, also known as volumetric flow rate. When measuring the flow of water resources, different units are frequently used, including cubic feet per second (CFS), cubic meters per second (cms), gallons per minute (GPM), millions of gallons per day (MGD), and others.
