During each summer, many families spend part of their vacation time at a beach along the East or West Coast. Due to the popularity of movies like Jaws and The Shallows, and publicity about recent shark attacks on surfers, swimmers, snorkelers, and spearfishermen, Americans have become increasingly concerned about water activities. Research suggests that 58% of all shark attacks involve surfers. One thousand records of shark attacks are selected, and each is categorized by the victim group. Identify the population, sample, and variable for the study.

a

   POPULATION : The population is the surfers , swimmers, snorkelers and spear-fishermen in America

      SAMPLE  : The 1000 records of shark attacks selected

     VARIABLE FOR STUDY:  580 surfers
