A researcher developed the following regression equation to predict muscular strength from fat mass (Fat) in undergraduate students.                                                                             predicted y = 1.0 + 0.7 (Fat)                                                                                           R2 = .49                                                                                    In this sample, what is the proportion of the variance in undergraduate students’  muscular strength that is explained by fat mass (Fat)?
