The following data show the brand, price ($), and the overallscore for six stereo headphones that were tested by a certainmagazine. The overall score is based on sound quality andeffectiveness of ambient noise reduction. Scores range from 0(lowest) to 100 (highest). The estimated regression equation forthese data is
Å· = 21.258 + 0.327x,
where x = price ($)and y = overall score.
Brand | Price ($) | Score |

A | 180 | 76 |
B | 150 | 69 |
C | 95 | 63 |
D | 70 | 54 |
E | 70 | 38 |
F | 35 | 24 |
(a)
Compute SST (Total Sum of Squares), SSR (Regression Sum ofSquares), and SSE (Error Sum of Squares). (Round your answers tothree decimal places.)
SST=SSR=SSE=
(b)
Compute the coefficient of determination
r2.
(Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Comment on the goodness of fit. (For purposes of this exercise,consider a proportion large if it is at least 0.55.)
The least squares line provided a good fit as a large proportionof the variability in y has been explained by the leastsquares line.The least squares line did not provide a good fit as asmall proportion of the variability in y has beenexplained by the least squares line.    Theleast squares line provided a good fit as a small proportion of thevariability in y has been explained by the least squaresline.The least squares line did not provide a good fit as a largeproportion of the variability in y has been explained bythe least squares line.
