At a particular college, 78% of all students are receiving some kind of financial aid. the school newspaper selects a random sample of 100 students and 72% of the respondents say they are receiving some sort of financial aid. which of the following is true? (a) 78% is a population and 72% is a sample. (b) 72% is a population and 78% is a sample. (c) 78% is a parameter and 72% is a statistic. (d) 72% is a parameter and 78% is a statistic. (e) 78% is a parameter and 100 is a statistic.

(c) 78% is a parameter and 72% is a statistic

Step-by-step explanation:

78% of students are receiving financial aid.

Number of samples selected = 100

72% of the sample selected are receiving financial aid.

The population is a made up of all the individuals we want to collect information from (the students of a particular college)

The part of the population from which sample are taken is called the sample.

78% describes the entire population while 72% describes the sample(100 students)

A parameter is a descriptive measure for a population while a statistic is a descriptive measure for a sample. Therefore

78% is a parameter while 72% is a statistic (C)

not only in mathematics, scientific proof also are required in the other field of science. also maths proofs are of particular structure, containing steps and logics. so proving is like doing science, it is science. that's why it is important to prove. 

an inaccurate proof leads to errors, or stating results that are not accurate.  which wil mess the probelm up you dont want this
