Decide whether the statement below makes sense (or is clearly true) or does not make sense (or is clearly false). Explain. In my
experimental study. l used a sample that was larger than the population. Choose the correct answer below O A. Yes, the statement makes sense. A sample is always larger than the population. O B. No, the statement does not make sense. The sample size should always equal the population size. O C. Yes, the statement makes sense. A sample can be as large as desired. D. No, the statement does not make sense. A sample is a subset of the population and cannot be larger than the population
Option D:The statement does not make sense. A sample is a subset of the population and cannot be larger than the population.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement does not make sense. A sample is a subset of the population and cannot be larger than the population.
We measure characteristics of a sample to infere properties of the population. In real cases, the samples are much smaller than the population.
The sample size is calculated in order to achieve the desired level of confidence in the estimation. This confidence usually increases by the root of the sample size.
