When a student uses quadratic regression on a graphing calculator to model data, the value of is 0.2. Make a conjecture about the fit of the model.
Choose the correct answer below.
A.
The value of is close to 0, so the function models the data closely. The data are most likely quadratic.
B.
The value of is not close to 1, so the function does not model the data closely. The data are most likely quadratic.
C.
The value of is close to 1, so the function models the data closely. The data are most likely quadratic.
D.
The value of is not close to 1, so the function does not model the data closely. The data may not be quadratic.
