Definition

Returns the right-tailed probability of the chi-squared distribution.

The χ2 distribution is associated with a χ2 test. Use the χ2 test to compare observed and expected values. For example, a genetic experiment might hypothesize that the next generation of plants will exhibit a certain set of colors. By comparing the observed results with the expected ones, you can decide whether your original hypothesis is valid.

Sample Usage

Syntax

CHISQ.DIST.RT(x,deg_freedom)

The CHISQ.DIST.RT function syntax has the following arguments:

  • X     Required. The value at which you want to evaluate the distribution.

  • Deg_freedom     Required. The number of degrees of freedom.

Remarks

  • If either argument is nonnumeric, CHISQ.DIST.RT function returns the #VALUE! error value.

  • If any argument is nonnumeric, CHISQ.DIST.RT function returns the #VALUE! error value.

  • If deg_freedom is not an integer, it is truncated.

  • If deg_freedom < 1 or deg_freedom > 10^10, CHISQ.DIST.RT returns the #NUM! error value.

In order to use the CHISQ.DIST.RT formula, start with your edited Excellentable:


 

 


Then type in the CHISQ.DIST.RT formula in the area you would like to display the outcome:


By adding the values you would like to calculate the CHISQ.DST.RT formula for, Excellentable will generate the outcome:
