Answer:

Sample: few thousand adults

Population: all the adults

Step-by-step explanation:

A sample is a subset of the population, selected randomly.

In this case:

The sample consist of the few thousand adults selected to determine the opinions about the National polls.

The population consist of all the adults belonging to the said nation.

Consider an example about the new President election.

To determine which of the two candidates (say <em>A</em> and <em>B</em>) has a higher probability of winning the President election, the election society took a random sample of voters and asked who they think will be a better president.

The sample selected will be large enough, probably 10% of the population of all voters.

From this study it can be estimated which candidate has the higher chance of winning.

These both go together
Airida [17]

a) We know that the probability Jane will win is 0.2, and draws is 0.3, which leaves the probability of her losing to be 0.5 (1 - 0.2 - 0.3 = 0.5).

I'll begin by filling in for the first game:

win = 0.2, draw = 0.3, lose = 0.5

Next, we'll fill in for if she wins, draws, or loses the second game. The probabilities would be the same as the first game for the second game.

Win (0.2): win = 0.2, draw = 0.3, lose = 0.5

Draw (0.3): win = 0.2, draw = 0.3, lose = 0.5

Lose (0.5): win = 0.2, draw = 0.3, lose = 0.5

b) To find the probability that Jane will win both games, we need to multiply the probability of Jane winning the first game by the probability of her winning the second game.

0.2 x 0.2 = 0.04

Hope this helps! :)
