Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The value of R2 lies between
A
-1 and 0
B
-1 and 1
C
0 and 1
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The value of R2 lies within the range of 0 and 1. It means if the value is 0, the independent variable does not explain the changes in the dependent variable. However, a value of 1 reveals that the independent variable explains the variation in the dependent variable perfectly well.

Detailed explanation-2: -The coefficient of determination (R²) is a number between 0 and 1 that measures how well a statistical model predicts an outcome. You can interpret the R² as the proportion of variation in the dependent variable that is predicted by the statistical model.

Detailed explanation-3: -Key properties of R-squared A value of 1 indicates that predictions are identical to the observed values; it is not possible to have a value of R² of more than 1.
