Respuesta :

B would be your answer!!!

Answer: D). there are no correlations between US crude oil and imports.

Explanation:

A correlation means that there is a relationship between two variables .

  • A positive correlation is proportional relation between variables i.e. as one variables increases or decreases then the other variable also increases or decreases .
  • A negative correlation inversely-proportional relation between variables,i.e. as one variables increases then the other variable also decreases or vice versa .
  • If there is no relation between variables, then we say there is no correlation.

From the given graph, there is neither positive nor negative correlation  between US crude oil and imports .

Thus, there is no correlation between US crude oil and imports.
