EXAMPLE:

His numbers went down from the previous poll of 54% favorable and 47% unfavorable to 48% favorable and 52% unfavorable. The population is all people in the U.S. of voting age and the sample was probably 1000 people in a major city in the United States.

Answer:

The population is the set of all the elements. And the sample is a subset of the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population is the set of all the elements. And the sample is a subset of the population.

The sample is used to make conclusions regarding the population.

A poll is conducted from the target population to determine the general opinions of the individuals of that population.

The basic method of polling is to select a few thousand individuals from the population and ask their opinions on a certain subject.

The poll will result usually in two values, the proportion of individual in favor and the proportion of individual not in favor.

Consider the example below.

The polling done to determine the favorability of the new brand of tea. The polling was done using a few hundred members of the tea drinking community of a country. The poll resulted as follows:

In favor = 72%

Not in favor = 28%

The population is the entire tea drinking community of a country.

In this case the sample consist of few 100 people of the tea drinking community of a country.

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 50% (0.5)

<h2>Why?</h2>

Exponential growth equations are use to predict the growth (in function of time) using proportional information.

We can calculate the exponential growth using the following formula:

y=S(1+r)^{t}

Where,

S, is the starting value

r, is the growth rate

t, is the time

So, we are given the function:

f(t) = 3(1 + 0.5)^{nt}

Where,

f(t), is the function,

3, is the starting value (lb)

0.5 (50%) is the growth rate

nt, is the time elapsed.

Hence,

From the given function, we know that the growth rate is equal to 0.5, and it's equal to 50%.

We can turn the growth rate given in real numbers to percent value by multiplying by 100

GrowthRate(Percentage)=0.5*100=50(Percent)

So, the growth rate is 50%.

Have a nice day!
