For two independent random samples with n_x and n_y observations,and each following a normal distribution,which of the following would be the F distribution degrees of freedom in the numerator? A)n_x - 1 B)n_x + 1 C)1 - D)n_y - 1

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The F distribution degrees of freedom in the numerator are based on the sample sizes of the two independent groups being compared. In this case, the sample size of the first group is n_x and the sample size of the second group is n_y. Therefore, the F distribution degrees of freedom in the numerator would be n_x - 1. Option A is the only one that fits this criteria.
