  To calculate the correla on factor (r), go to Excel, Formulas, Sta s cs, and select the CORREL func on.
  To calculate the Regression Equa on and Coe cient of Determina on: a. Select the x,y data
b. Insert a sca er chart from that data
c. Click the chart, go to Chart Design
d. Go to Quick Layout
e. Select Layout 9
f. Then you get the Regression Equa on, and r square.
