1 means a perfect positive relationship and a value of zero means no relationship at all. It is the square root of r
squared (see #2).
2. R square. This is r2, the Coefficient of Determination. It tells you how many points fall on the regression line. for
example, 80% means that 80% of the variation of y-values around the mean are explained by the x-values. In other
words, 80% of the values fit the model.
3. Adjusted R square. The adjusted R-squared adjust for the number of terms in a model. Youll want to use this instead
of #2 if you have more than one x variable.
4. Standard Error of the regression: An estimate of the standard deviation of the error . This is not the same as the
standard error in descriptive statistics! The standard error of the regression is the precision that the regression
coefficient is measured; if the coefficient is large compared to the standard error, then the coefficient is probably
different from 0.
5. Observations. Number of observations in the sample.

R2 = 1 residual sum of squares (SS Residual) / Total sum of squares (SS Total).
In the above table, residual sum of squares = 0.0366 and the total sum of squares is 0.75, so:
R2 = 1 0.0366/0.75=0.9817

This article should clearly credit the source it is based on (plagiarized from?);
http://cameron.econ.ucdavis.edu/excel/ex61multipleregression.html
It also introduces additional errors, particularly;
and the total sum of squares is 1.6050, so:
R2 = 1 0.3950 1.6050 = 0.8025.
Should read;
and the total sum of squares is 2, so:
R2 = 1 0.3950 / 2 = 0.8025.
