It is usually noted that correlation does not imply causation, but there are some correlations which are causation as well.

A correlation is when there is a relationship between two variables while causation is when the outcome of one variable affects the outcome of the other variable.

From the first option, though there may be a positive relationship between sales of jeans and sales of slacks, but the purchase of jeans does not mean that you have to purchase a slack, thus, there is no causation.

For the second option, though there may be positive relationship between <span>the number of aisles and the number of products in a supermarket, but a supermarket can have many aisles with few products, i.e. many aisles does not automatically imply many products, thus, there is no causation.

For the third option, though there may be a positive relationship between </span><span>the number of swimmers and the number of sunbathers at a beach, but all swimmers in a beach are not sunbathers and all sunbathers are not swimmers. Thus, a swimmer does not imply a sunbather and a sunbather does not imply a swimmer. Thus, there is no causation.

For the last option, it is generally known that the more you practice an activity, the better you get in that activity. Thus, there exist a relationship between </span><span>the number of hours spent practicing archery and the number of bull's-eyes an archer can hit and there also exist causation because the number of bull's-eye an archer can hit is directly dependent on the number of hours the archer spent practicing.

Therefore, the </span><span>correlation that is most likely a causation is </span><span>the positive correlation between the number of hours spent practicing archery and the number of bull's-eyes the archer can hit.</span>

Explain how to find the sum of 3/10 + 4/100
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: 17/50

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to add fractions, we must find a common denominator, in this case, 100.

Then, we must make the fractions being added all have the common denominator.

So, we must multiply 3/10 * 10/10, which equals 30/100

30/100 + 4/100

Then, just add across the numerator to get 34/100, which can be simplified to 17/50

Answer:

33.49 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

V_{sphere}  =  \frac{4}{3}  \times  \pi {r}^{3}  \\  \\ V_{sphere}  =  \frac{4}{3}  \times  \pi {(2)}^{3}  \\  \\  V_{sphere}  =  \frac{4}{3}  \times  \pi  \times 8 \\  \\ V_{sphere}  =  \frac{32 \times 3.14}{3}  \\  \\ V_{sphere}  =  \frac{100.48}{3}  \\  \\ V_{sphere}  = 33.4933333\\  \\ V_{sphere}   \approx 33.49\: units^3
