Solution :

The term 'literacy rate' provides the ability of a person who is from a definite age group can read or write.

a). $R^2$ does not determine the rate at which the variable explains another, but it explains the amount the amount of variability in one of the variables as explained by the other variable.

b). The slope given provides an expected improvement but it cannot guarantee the improvement. The value may be less or it could be more also.

The regression model provides the prediction and not the actual values.

A car travels 360 miles in a period of 180 minutes. Find the average velocity of the car in miles per hour over this time period
Serggg [28]
The simple formula for velocity is v=d/t.  Velocity equals distance divided by time.  360 miles divided by 180 minutes.  360/180=2.  The car travels at 2 miles per MINUTE.

Now, to change to miles per HOUR.  There are 60 minutes in an hour, so 2*60=120 miles per hour.
