Answer: 770 voters in his district.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Population is the largest group of individuals carrying some specific similar characteristics.
- A sample is a subset of population that is used to represents the entire population.
Given : A state representative wants to know how voters in his district feel about enacting a statewide smoking ban in all enclosed public places, including bars and restaurants, as well as several other current statewide issues.
So the population here is : Voters in His districts .
He mails a questionnaire addressing these issues to an SRS (simple random sample) of 770 voters in his district. Of the 770 questionnaires mailed, 147 were returned.
Thus , the sample is : <u>770 voters in his district</u>.
Basically 770 voters is a subset of the entire population voters in his district.
