Question
Multiple correlation question. Given the correlation coefficent of Y with X1 is r01, the correlation coefficent of Y with X2 is r02 and the correlation coefficent of X1 with X2 is r12 then explain the proportion of variablity of Y. Also find the partial corr coeff between Y and X2 after fitting X1 and find how much of the remaining variability in Y is explained by X2 after fitting X1.
