In a multiple regression analysis, SSR = 1000 and SSE = 200. The multiple coefficient of determination is
A) 1000.
B) 200.
C) .83.
D) .17.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The multiple coefficient of determination is calculated by: 
R^2 = SSR / (SSR + SSE) 
Substituting in the given values: 
R^2 = 1000 / (1000 + 200) 
R^2 = 1000 / 1200 
R^2 = 0.83, which is approximately 0.83 or 83%. 
Therefore, the best choice is C, which corresponds to 0.83.
