The correlation coefficient is 0.5, so the explained sum of squares has to be 0.75. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

This is a pretty straightforward regression question. I'm confident that the answer is D) 0.375.

C) 0.3333 seems like the correct answer to me. The explained sum of squares is the total sum of squares multiplied by the square of the correlation coefficient, which is 0.5^2 = 0.25.

I'm going with B) 1.125. The explained sum of squares is the total sum of squares multiplied by the square of the correlation coefficient.

Hmm, I think the explained sum of squares should be 0.75. The correlation coefficient squared gives the proportion of the total variance that is explained by the regression.

Yes, the correlation coefficient squared is 0.5 squared, which equals 0.25. So, 0.25 * 1.5 = 0.75.
