@camerondoherty @hartnn @Harsha19111999 @Haseeb96
even if you don't know cooking, you must be knowing that one doesn't eat everything to test if the food has enough salt or not you just take a small sample to see if the food is tasting good, right ? http://img1.cookinglight.timeinc.net/sites/default/files/styles/500xvariable/public/image/2008/09/0809p121-stirfry-x.jpg?itok=XPOt641q
In this analogy : the small part of food you taste to check is SAMPLE the entire food in the container is POPULATION
Okay but, would the answer be the third answer choice

statistics is all about surveys surveys are done in reality
But, this is a review question I just want to know the right answer @ganeshie8 please just be help. And what do you think @Harsha19111999
thats all i can help
whatever people you test is called `sample` all the people they represent is called `population`
Wait so from looking at the answer choices above you really don't know???
The sample is what you have examined
So, if you have gone to one high school and one middle school, that would be the sample
ANSWER CHOICES All students who attend one middle school and one high school in Miami, FL All students who attend middle school or high school in the country All students who attend middle school or high school in Miami, FL All students who attend middle school or high school in Florida
1) The first one is the correct one 2) You didn't go to all the students and 3,4 will be definitely wrong. Can you say the answer now?
