Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The coefficient of determination (R-squared) is the proportion of the total variation in Y that is explained by the variation in X. It is calculated as: R-squared = 1 - (SSE/SST).

Plugging in the given values, we get: 
R-squared = 1 - (6/16) 
R-squared = 0.625

Therefore, the answer is C.
