D)none of these

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A correlation is a statistical measure that describes the relationship between two variables. It shows how closely two variables are related and how one variable changes with respect to the other. Therefore, the best choice is C, which directly refers to the relationship between two variables. A is incorrect because an intersection refers to where two things meet or cross over. B is incorrect because commonality refers to something that is shared or exists in common. D is incorrect because there is an association between two variables (a relationship), so none of these is not a valid choice.
