5.Hard

A chi-square goodness-of-fit test checks whether counts in 7 categories follow a Poisson distribution whose mean is estimated from the same data. How many degrees of freedom df does the test have?

k = 7
df =
6.Hard

A chi-square goodness-of-fit test compares observed counts in 10 categories with fully specified expected proportions (no parameters are estimated from the data). How many degrees of freedom df does the test have?

k = 10
