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.

What is the total group from which a sample is drawn?
Population
What is a total group from which a sample is drawn?
Population
What is the definition for probability sample?
A probability sample is one in which each member of the population has the same probability of being included. An alternative and equivalent definition is that it is a sample such that the probability of selecting that particular sample is the same for all samples of that size which could be drawn from the population.
In statistics what would you call the conclusions drawn about a population?
INFERENCES Any calculated number from a sample from the population is called a 'statistic', such as the mean or the variance.
When the population standard deviation is not known the sampling distribution is a?
If the samples are drawn frm a normal population, when the population standard deviation is unknown and estimated by the sample standard deviation, the sampling distribution of the sample means follow a t-distribution.
What is the total group from which a sample is drawn?
Population
What is a total group from which a sample is drawn?
Population
What is the entire set in which a sample is drawn in math?
It is the population.
What is an independent value?
sample data drawn from one population is completely unrelated to the selection of sample data from the other population.
What is independent values?
sample data drawn from one population is completely unrelated to the selection of sample data from the other population.
What is the list of elements in a population from which the sample is drawn?
sampling base
What is the difference between calculating the sample mean and the population mean?
You calculate the actual sample mean, and from that number, you then estimate the probable mean (or the range) of the population from which that sample was drawn.
What information about a sample does a mean not provide?
what information about the sample of a mean not provide
Does the accuracy of a sample in representing the characteristics of the population from which it was drawn always increase with the size of the sample?
yes the size is 4444
When a large number of samples are drawn from a negatively skewed population the distribution of the sample means?
.45
What is the definition for probability sample?
A probability sample is one in which each member of the population has the same probability of being included. An alternative and equivalent definition is that it is a sample such that the probability of selecting that particular sample is the same for all samples of that size which could be drawn from the population.
Example of the difference between a parameter and a statistic?
perameter is a measure of population or universe, statistic is a measure of a sample data drawn from population
