The math department faculty at a large university wanted to know what portion of the student body believes students should be able to enroll in any math class without meeting a prerequisite. The statistics department offered to cooperate in conducting a survey, and a simple random sample of 500 students was selected from all the students enrolled in statistics classes. A survey form was sent by email to these 500 students and 236 responded. What is the population of interest for this study?

The population of interest for this student is the students whom are enrolled in statistics classes.

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 of interest are all residents of New York State.

A simple random sample of 500 students was selected from all the students enrolled in statistics classes.

This means that the population of interest for this student is the students whom are enrolled in statistics classes.

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
