The questions deal with the length (in inches) and weight (in ounces) of
fetuses from 20 weeks to 42 weeks gestation (23 data points). Lengths of
fetuses from the top of the head to the heel are estimated by ultrasound
measurements. A scatterplot of the data is given below.

Expert Solution
Step 1

R2 known as Coefficient of Determination, indicates the amount of variation in dependent variable Y with respect to the independent variable X. It is a goodness of fit measure for linear regression which measures the strength of the relationship between the two variables. Higher R -squared values represent smaller differences between the observed values and fitted values. It denotes the strength of the linear association between X and Y.

R-squared is the percentage of the dependent variable variation that a linear model explains. R2 is always between 0 and 100% where, 0% represents a model that does not explain any of the variation in the dependent variable, whereas 100% represents a model that explains all the variation in the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable.
