correlated
Statistically tied together
Correlated describes things that vary together in a predictable way.
When two variables are correlated, changes in one accompany changes in another: Height and weight are correlated.
Correlation doesn't imply causation—correlated phenomena may share a common cause or be coincidentally linked.
Ice cream sales and drowning deaths are correlated because both increase in summer.
