Reading 11- LOS F (Part 2): Q2

2.at does the R² of a simple regression of two variables measure and what calculation is used to equate the correlation coefficient to the coefficient of determination?

A)                                                                percent of variability of the independent variable that is explained by the variability of the dependent variable                                R² = r × 2

B)                                                                percent of variability of the dependent variable that is explained by the variability of the independent variable                              R² = r × 2

C)                                                                percent of variability of the independent variable that is explained by the variability of the dependent variable                                R² = r²

D)                                                                percent of variability of the dependent variable that is explained by the variability of the independent variable                              R² = r²
