Compute the corresponding coefficient of determination r2. (Use 3 decimal places.) r r2 x1, x2 x1, x3 x2, x3 b) What percent of the variation in x1 can be explained by the corresponding variation in x2? Answer the same question for x3. (Use 1 decimal place.) x2 _____% x3 _____% (c) Perform a regression analysis with x1 as the response variable. Use x2 and x3 as explanatory variables. Look at the coefficient of multiple determination. What percentage of the variation in x1 can be explained by the corresponding variations in x2 and x3 taken together? (Use 1 decimal place.) _____ %
