Answer

$R^2=0.7584=75.84$% 75.84% of the variation of the head circumference is explained by the model found in part (e). $R^2_{adj}=0.7383=73.83$% It adjusts the value of $R^2$, given the size of the sample, $n$, and the number of explanatory variables, $k$.

Work Step by Step

See the results in MINITAB, part (e). $R^2=0.7584=75.84$% $R^2_{adj}=1-(\frac{n-1}{n-k-1})(1-R^2)=1-(\frac{14-1}{14-1-1})(1-0.7584)=0.7383$
