Question
How do you interpret a coefficient of determination, r,equal to 0.99? Choose the correct answer below. 0 A. O B. ° C. 0 D. The interpretation is that 0.01% of the variation in the dependent variable can be explained by the variation in the independent variable. The interpretation is that 1% of the variation in the independent variable can be explained by the variation in the dependent variable. The interpretation is that 99% of the variation in the dependent variable can be explained by the variation in the independent variable The interpretation is that 0.99% of the variation in the independent variable can be explained by the variation in the dependent variable.Explanation / Answer
Interpretation of coefficient of variation r2
r2 *100% of the variation in dependent variable (y) is explained by the variation in predictor/independent variable(x)
Here, r2 = 0.99 => 99%
Hence, correct interpretation is,
C) The interpretation is that 99% of the variation in the dependent variable can be explained by the variation in the independent variable.
