(adj) = 12.4% is there statistical evidence of a linear relationship between shoe size and height? no, because r2, the coefficient of determination, is too small no, because 0.147 is above any reasonable significance level yes, there is evidence at the 5% significance level yes, because, by any reasonable observation, taller women tend to have a larger shoe size
