Transcribed Image Text:**Topic: T-Distribution and Critical Values**
For a t-curve with d.f.=8, find the two t-values that divide the area under the curve into a middle 0.99 area and two outside areas of 0.005.
- ○ 0, 2.897
- ○ -3.355, 3.355
- ○ 0, 3.355
- ● -2.897, 2.897
**Explanation:**
In a t-distribution with 8 degrees of freedom (d.f.=8), to find the critical t-values that create a central region covering 99% of the distribution (leaving 0.005 in each tail), we look up the t-distribution table or use statistical software.
Here, the correct t-values are -2.897 and 2.897, which split the t-curve into the desired areas.
