If the size of a sample equals to the size of the population?
Sample is subset of the population so sample size and population size is different.However, as a subset can be the whole set, if the sample size equals the population size, you have sampled the entire population and you will be 100% accurate with your results; it may cost much more than surveying a [representative] sample, but you get the satisfaction of knowing for what you surveyed the population exactly.Using a sample is a trade off between the cost of surveying the whole population and accuracy of the result.A census is a survey of the whole population and could be considered that the sample size = population size; in this case the results are 100% accurate.The television viewing figures are calculated using a sample of the whole population and then extrapolating them to the whole population; depending upon how the same was chosen, including its size, will affect the accuracy of the results - most likely not more than 95% accurate.With a carefully selected (that is properly biased) sample you can prove almost anything!
If a sample of 66 employees were taken from a population of 820 employees s2 could refer to the variance of how many of the employees salarues?
In this context, ( s^2 ) would refer to the sample variance of the salaries of the 66 employees taken from the population of 820 employees. It is a measure of how much the salaries of these sampled employees deviate from their average salary. This sample variance provides an estimate of the variance of the population, assuming that the sample is representative.
If a population consisted of 1000 people a sample of the population could consist of which number of people?
A sample from a population of 1,000 people can consist of any number from 1 to 1,000 individuals, depending on the sampling method and purpose of the study. Typically, researchers choose a sample size that is manageable and representative, often ranging from a few dozen to several hundred individuals. The key is to ensure the sample accurately reflects the characteristics of the overall population to draw valid conclusions.
Which sample is more representative of the population?
We could answer that in a snap, if we knew something about the population and could see the list of proposed samples. Call me crazy, but I'm suspecting wherever you copied the question from, all that stuff was right there with it.
Why is a sample better than a census?
its better because we often don't have to survey a large population, so a sample is quicker, easier, requires few ressources, little time and can be more accurate if a person is not there to answer it because a sample could represent that person.
The sample variance is always smaller than the true value of the population variance is always larger than the true value of the population variance could be smaller equal to or?
yes, it can be smaller, equal or larger to the true value of the population varience.
What is the sample size for a population of 60010?
well a sample size can be any size depending on the requirements. A sample size could be 10 people of that entire population or it could be 1000 people.
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.
Is it possible for sample not normal to be from normal population?
Yes. You could have a biased sample. Its distribution would not necessarily match the distribution of the parent 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.

What is the difference between population and statistical population?
Population refers to all the individuals or items of interest in a particular group. Statistical population refers to the theoretical concept of all possible individuals or items that could be included in a study, from which a sample is actually drawn. Statistical population is typically larger than the actual population being studied.

How does a sample size impact the standard deviation?
If I take 10 items (a small sample) from a population and calculate the standard deviation, then I take 100 items (larger sample), and calculate the standard deviation, how will my statistics change? The smaller sample could have a higher, lower or about equal the standard deviation of the larger sample. It's also possible that the smaller sample could be, by chance, closer to the standard deviation of the population. However, A properly taken larger sample will, in general, be a more reliable estimate of the standard deviation of the population than a smaller one. There are mathematical equations to show this, that in the long run, larger samples provide better estimates. This is generally but not always true. If your population is changing as you are collecting data, then a very large sample may not be representative as it takes time to collect.
Is there a sample letter to notify customers of business owner's death?
If a business owner dies, the business could send out a formal letter notifying returning customers of the event. The letter should be short and to the point, and include what the plans for the business are.
If a sample of 23 bowlers were taken from a population of 187 bowlers could refer to the mean of how many bowlers' scores?
23
