Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Degrees of freedom are associated with variance, specifically the variance for a sample. It refers to the number of independent observations available for calculating the sample variance. The formula for calculating the sample variance involves dividing the sum of squared deviations by the degrees of freedom. The degrees of freedom for a sample is equal to n-1, where n is the sample size.
