A random sample of 1000 people who signed a card saying they intend to quit smoking were contacted 9 months later. Turned out that 210 (21%) of the sampled individuals had not smoked in the past 6 months. What is the population, parameter, sample and statistic?

Population is the total number of people that fall into the description of those that the research concerns.

In this case, Population is: Everyone who signed a card saying that they intend to quit smoking.

Sample. This is a subset of the population that the research is based on.

Sample = 1,000 people surveyed.

Parameter and Statistic are both descriptive measures but parameter is for the population and statistic is for the sample.

Parameter = Percentage of total population who have not smoked in 6 months.

Statistic = 21% of sample who have not smoked in 3 months.

three-fourths of an hour

36÷48=0.75

0.75=

b. an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the figure of two circles having a triangle inside.

now, we know that,

"when a figure is lying inside an another figure, then the outside figure is known as circumscribed figure and the figure lying inside is referred to as the inscribed figure".

as we see that, the circles are containing the triangle completely.

thus, the circles are the circumscribed figures and the triangle is the inscribed figure.

hence, we get, 'an equilateral triangle is inscribed in a circle'.
