Answer:
Population = 75,342 households
Sample = 400 randomly selected households
The percentage who live in a single household unit = Parameter
The average of 2.9 person per household of all households in the city = parameter
The $65,000 median family income of all the households in the city = Parameter
Step-by-step explanation:
The population refers to all the entire elements, observations or subject which fits into a particular study. In the scenario above, the entire household in the city of study. That is, the 75,342 households.
The sample is the subset of the population which is a smaller set of observation meant to be representative of the larger population. The sample here is the 400 randomly selected households.
Parameter differs from statistics in that numerical estimates or calculations obtained from the population is called the parameter while the numerical characteristics derived from the sample is called statistic.
Yes, there are many possible answers. An equation that can model your situation is:
4a+4b=75, with a being the amount of adult tickets sold, and b being the amount of children’s tickets sold.
Because both tickets cost 4 dollars, you would multiply the amount of tickets sold, by the price (in dollars) of the ticket.
So, you can find possible answers by substituting the amount of adult tickets sold. Say, 4 adults bought tickets. You could then substitute a for 4. So the equation would look like this.
4(4)+4b=75
16 + 4b = 75
4b = 75 - 16
4b = 59
Divide each side by four
B = 14.75
The reason you got a decimal number is because 75 cannot be divided by 4 evenly. So, in this context, you could say that 15 children bought tickets. One child had an issue, and Lisa gave them a 25% discount. This would explain why there are only 75 dollars worth in tickets. I hope I helped, this is my first question I have ever answered so I’m not entirely sure if this was helpful or not. Hope you figure this out!
