It is not a sample. A sample must be a proper subset of the whole population.

What sentence is a true statement Is a sample a subset of the population or Is a population a subset of the sample?
A sample is a subset of the population.
How is a sample different from a population?
The sample is a subset of the population.
A population that consists of 500 observations has a mean of 40 and a standard deviation of 15 A sample of size 100 is taken at random from this population The standard error of the sample mean equa?
The formula for calculating the standard error (or some call it the standard deviation) is almost the same as for the population; except the denominator in the equation is n-1, not N (n = number in your sample, N = number in population). See the formulas in the related link.
What is a convenience sample in math?
convenience sampling consists of two or more sample events.
What is represenatative sample of population?
A representative sample is one where the statistics of the sample are the same as the statistics for the parent population.
Explain the differences between a sample and a population?
A sample consists of a small portion of data when a population is taken from a large amount.
What is difference of population sample?
The population consists of every possible unit where a sample is a subset of the population. Note that population and sample need not refer to persons. For example, if studying biodiversity, the population could consist of plots of land.
What is a randomly selected portion of the population called?
Sample. A random sample ensures that everyone or thing has a proportionally equal chance of being picked. The idea is that the sample should be representative of the whole population.
What is subset of a population called?
A Sample
This process gives everyone in the population an equal chance of becoming a member of the sample?
Random Selection Process
What is the defining characteristic of a representative sample?
It will represent the population as a whole. This is a great idea if you the population is too large and you want to get a general idea of how everyone will think.
What sentence is a true statement Is a sample a subset of the population or Is a population a subset of the sample?
A sample is a subset of the population.
What will happen if the sample you have drawn from the population does not represent the population?
You are studying the sample because you want to find out information about the whole population. If the sample you have drawn from the population does not represent the population, you will find out about the sample but will not find out about the population.
How is a sample related to a population?
A sample is a subset of the population.
How is a sample different from a population?
The sample is a subset of the population.
Is the data is sample or population?
Data is neither sample nor population. Data are collected for attributes. These can be for a sample or a population.
What is the difference between a simple random sample and a stratified random sample?
Sometimes a population consists of a number of subsets (strata) such that members within any particular strata are alike while difference between strata are more than simply random variations. In such a case, the population can be split up into strata. Then a stratified random sample consists of simple random samples, with the same sampling proportion, taken within each stratum.
