Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Degrees of freedom for a table are usually calculated using the formula (Number of rows -1) x (Number of columns -1). However, since no information is given about the number of rows or columns in the table, it is safe to assume that there is only one degree of freedom. This is because an observation or value can be freely chosen as long as the others are fixed (depending on the context of the table). Therefore, the only possible choice is B.
