A study of 100 randomly selected students from first through sixth grade finds a strong correlation between overall fitness and participation in sports. Can you conclude that participation in a sport causes students to be more fit? Why or why not?

a. No. Two variables can show a strong correlation even if there is not causation.

b. Yes. Two variables can show a strong correlation even if there is not causation.

c. No. One variable can show a strong correlation even if there is not causation.

d. Yes. One variable can show a strong correlation even if there is not causation.

a. No. Two variables can show a strong correlation even if there is not causation.

The data show Mark’s commute times, in minutes, based on how many minutes after 7:00 A.M. he leaves his home. Use the points (2, 23) and (16, 16) to write an equation for the line of fit in slope-intercept form, where x is the number of minutes after 7:00 A.M. and y is the commute time, in minutes. If the trend continues, what would be the approximate commute time if Mark leaves at 7:18 A.M.?
