A) 40.30% of the total variation in the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff can be explained by the age of the worker,the number of years of education received,the number of years at the previous job,marital status,whether the worker is the head of household,and whether the worker is a manager,after adjusting for the number of predictors and sample size. B) 40.30% of the total variation in the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff can be explained by the age of the worker,the number of years of education received,the number of years at the previous job,marital status,whether the worker is the head of household,and whether the worker is a manager,holding constant the effect of all the independent variables. C) 40.30% of the total variation in the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff can be explained by the age of the worker,the number of years of education received,the number of years at the previous job,marital status,whether the worker is the head of household,and whether the worker is a manager. D) 40.30% of the total variation in the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff can be explained by the age of the worker,the number of years of education received,the number of years at the previous job,marital status,whether the worker is the head of household,and whether the worker is a manager,after adjusting for the level of significance.
