Using this information, compute the following estimates of prediction error:

a. Calculate the sum of squared error for the mean, SStotal.

b. Now, using the regression equation provided, calculate the sum of squared error for the regression equation, SSerror.

c. Using your work, calculate the proportionate reduction in error for these data.

d. Check that this calculation of r2 equals the square of the correlation coefficient.
