Quizplus · Accepted Answer

With a contingency table of 5 X 5 and a significance level of 0.05, the degrees of freedom is (5-1) * (5-1) = 16. Using a chi-square distribution table, the critical value for 16 degrees of freedom at a significance level of 0.05 is 26.296. Therefore, the best choice is B.
