Explanation:
R² = (350 − 130) / 350 = 0.63 = 63%
adjusted R² = 1 − [(30 − 1) / (30 − 6 − 1) × (1 − 0.63)] = 0.534 = 53.4%
The R² of 63% suggests that the six independent variables together explain 63% of the variation in monthly value stock returns.

A
37.1%; 53.4%.
B
37.1%; 79.0%.
C
46.6%; 37.1%.
D
