T DISTRIBUTION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A z distribution would be the same as a t distribution with how many degrees of freedom?
A
20
B
30
C
100
D
infinite
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The variance is always greater than 1, although it is close to 1 when there are many degrees of freedom. With infinite degrees of freedom, the t-distribution is the same as the standard normal distribution.

Detailed explanation-2: -Z Test Critical Values As I mentioned in the Z vs T test section, a Z test does not use degrees of freedom. It evaluates Z-scores in the context of the standard normal distribution. Unlike the t-distribution, the standard normal distribution doesn’t change shape as the sample size changes.
