I'm trying to figure out how to calculate the SS value, but I'm not sure about the specific steps or formula to use. Can someone explain the process to me?

When the sum of squares is higher, it signifies that the data points exhibit greater variability or dispersion from the mean.

Conversely, a lower sum of squares indicates that the data points are closer to the mean, demonstrating low variability.

To compute the sum of squares, one must first determine the mean of the data points.

The sum of squares is a statistical measure that evaluates how far data points deviate from their mean value.

Each data point is then subtracted from the mean, and the resulting differences are squared. These squared differences are subsequently summed up to obtain the sum of squares.
