F.DIST.RTThe F.DIST.RT function calculates the right-tailed F probability distribution (degree of diversity) for two data sets with given input x. Alternately called Fisher-Snedecor distribution or Snedecor’s F distribution.
Sample Usage
F.DIST.RT(15.35, 7, 6)
F.DIST.RT(A2, B2, C2)
Syntax
F.DIST.RT(x, degrees_freedom1, degrees_freedom2)
x – The input to the F probability distribution function. The value at which to evaluate the function.
Must be a positive number.
degrees_freedom1 – The numerator of the number of degrees of freedom.
degrees_freedom2 – The denominator of the number of degrees of freedom.
Notes
Both degrees_freedom1 and degrees_freedom2 are truncated to an integer in the calculation if a non-integer is provided as an argument.
Both degrees_freedom1 and degrees_freedom2 must be greater than 1 and may not exceed 10^10.
All arguments must be numeric.
F.DIST.RT is synonymous with FDIST.

Examples
In this example, suppose you want to determine whether the data for hours spent studying each week have different variability for engineering majors at University A than at University B. We will evaluate the curve of F Distribution when x equals 15.35, and use 7 and 6 for degrees_freedom1 and degrees_freedom2 respectively.
