find the value of x2 values that separate the middle 90% from the rest of the distribution for 8 degrees of freedom

With alpha 0.95 and 8 degrees of freedom χ²= 2.73

And with alpha 0.05 and 8 degrees of freedom χ²=15.51

Step-by-step explanation:

The significance level ∝ = 1- 0.9 = 0.1

But we need the area of the middle so we divide this significance level with 2

so that we get exactly the middle area .

Dividing 0.1/2= 0.05

So we will have two values for chi square

One with  0.9 + 0.05 = 0.95 alpha and one with 0.05 alpha . This is because the chi square is right tailed.

So with alpha 0.95 and 8 degrees of freedom χ²= 2.73

And with alpha 0.05 and 8 degrees of freedom χ²=15.51

This can be shown with a graph.

the formula for the equation of a circle is (x – h)2+ (y – k)2 = r2, where (h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle, and r represents the radius of the circle. if a circle is tangent to the x-axis at (3,0), this means it touches the x-axis at that point.
