In the analysis, the explained sum of squares (SSE) is equal to __________.

- 0.346
- 323.70
- 551.39
- 875.09

**Explanation:**

The table displays results from a regression analysis where the model attempts to predict the average price of a one-way fare (`lfare`) based on the distance of the flight (`ldist`). The key sections show:

1. **SS (Sum of Squares):**
   - **Model SS** (SSE): 323.702686, representing the explained sum of squares, which indicates the variation in the dependent variable explained by the model.
   - **Residual SS**: 551.391705, representing the unexplained variation (error) in the model.
   - **Total SS**: 875.094374, the total variation in the dependent variable
