Step-by-step explanation:

Sampling

This is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population.

For example:

I want to estimate the proportion of New York state residents who are Buffalo Bills fans. So i ask, lets say, 1000 randomly selected New York state residents wheter they are Buffalo Bills fans, and expand this to the entire population of New York State residents.

The population for this survey is all New York State residents, while the sample are the 1000 New York State residents.

From telephone book listings, the committee chooses 80 businesses at random.

Survey: 80 businesses.

Population: All businesses in the college town.

Then

a) What is the population for this sample survey?

The population population in this situation is all the local business

b) What is the sample?

The sample is the 80 of local business selected.

c) What is the rate (percent) of nonresponse?

80 - 46 = 34 non-responses, out of 80

34/80 = 0.425

0.425*100 = 42.5%

The rate of nonresponse is 42.5%.

i can't solve unless i know what the line is
