Given:
[tex]\text{ coefficient of correlation \lparen r\rparen = 0.98}[/tex]
To find:
Coefficient of determination
Explanation:
The coefficient of determination is also known as the R squared value, which is the output of the regression analysis method.
If the value of R square is zero, the dependent variable cannot be predicted from the independent variable.
So, here the required coefficient of determination is:
[tex]r^2=(0.98)^2=0.9604\approx0.96[/tex]
Final answer:
Hence, the required coefficient of determination is (B) 0.96.
