Manatees are large sea creatures that live in the shallow water alone the coast of Florida. Many manatees are injured or killed each year by powerboats. Here are the data on manatees killed and powerboat registration (in thousands of boats) in Florida for the period 1984 to 1990. Only calculators can be used no minitab or any other software.

a. Find values x , y, Sxx, Syy, and Sxy.
b. Using b1 = Sxy and b0 = y- b1x find the regression equation yˆ =b0 + b1x.
c. What is the coefficient of determination, r2?
I have answered a and b but need help solving question c. I know the answer but I need to know how to solve the problem using a formula. for the coefficient of determination
by answer is not matching the correct answer. which is 0.881645
Solution
Sxx = 22682
Syy = 292.857143
Sxy = 2420
r. = Sxy/ (Sxx * Syy)
= 2420/ ( 22682 * 292.857143)
= 0.881645
