Let's differentiate the terms statistic and parameter. Statistic is a branch of mathematics that involves the treatment of various data through collection, preparation, analysis and interpretation. A parameter is a unit of measure which is an element of the system.

Since 78% is the percentage of the whole data, this is a statistic. A parameter, for instance, is the 2,890 readers :)

The answer is A.

I hope you clearly understood my explanation :)

Juliette [100K]
From the given data:<span> vertex at the origin and a focus at (0, 9), the parabola should be facing upwards. In this case, the length of the latus rectum is 9 units which is a. Hence the equation becomes y = 4 (9) x^2. The equation is equal to y = 36 x^2. The standard form is 36 x^2 - y = 0.</span>
