Question

What is the critical value for a chi-square test with 13 degrees of freedom at the 1 percent level of significance

Answer 1

Answer: 27.688

Step-by-step explanation:

The critical chi-square value $\chi^2_{(df,\alpha)}$ depends on significance level ($\alpha$)  and degrees of freedom (df) .

Given significance level: ($\alpha$) = 1% = 0.01

Degrees of freedom (df)= 13

From the chi-square table, the critical chi-square value for df = 13 and $\alpha =0.01$

is $\chi^2_{(df,\alpha)}=27.688$

Hence, the  required critical value = 27.688
