Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sampling distribution of the quantity $(n - 1)s^2/\sigma^2$ follows a chi-square distribution, where $s^2$ is the sample variance, $\sigma^2$ is the population variance, and $n$ is the sample size. This is a fundamental result in statistics related to the properties of variances.
