a. The population for the study is a total of 1000 adults, so the 50% that favored the plan made up a total of 500 people, since 500 is 1/2 (or 50%) of 1000.
b. The percentage provided is an inferential statistic. Inferential statistics are made by taking a sample of a population and using that sample as data used to make inferences/predictions. Since the percentage provided is a sample of a population being used to make a prediction, it is an inferential statistic.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Her former rent is $ x
Twice the former rent: 2*x = 2x
$300 less than 2x: 2x - 300
2x - 300 = 550
Add 300 to both sides
2x - 300 + 300 = 550 + 300
2x = 850
Divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 850/2
x = 425
Her former rent = $425
