What is a summary measure that is computed to describe a characteristic of an entire population called?
a summary measure that is computed to describe a characteristic of an entire population is called:
A numerical measure computed to describe a characteristic of a population is called?
parameter
Is statistic a measure that describes a population characteristic?
Not necessarily.For instance, one can calculate a so-called 't' statistic as a way of testing an hypothesis about one or two population means. Notice that in this case the statistic does not describe a population characteristic.
Is a parameter a measurable characteristic of a sample?
this is false... a parameter is a measure of a mean or mode, a measurable characteristic of a sample is called a statistic.
Is p value a descriptive statistic?
No, it is not. A descriptive statistic is a measure such as mean, standard deviation etc., computed from a set of observations. A p value is something that is obtained by computing a test statistic (using a formula which may involve mean, variance etc.,) and finding the probability of obtaining a value as great as or greater than the one actually obtained. In other words, a p value is a probability and must lie between 0 and 1 whereas a descriptive statistic is not a probability. It is just a number used to describe a specific characteristic of a set of sata.

Which characteristic of a wave describe the greatest distance a wave vibratetes from a ressting position?
The amplitude of a wave describes the greatest distance a wave vibrates from its resting position. It is the measure of the height or intensity of the wave.
What do you mean by a statistic and its sampling distribution?
A statistic is a summary measure of some characteristic of a population. If you were to take repeated samples from the population you would not get the same statistic each time - it would vary. And the set of values you would get is its sampling distribution.
What is an arithmetic mean?
An arithmetic mean is a measure of central tendency of a set of values computed by dividing the sum of the values by the number of values.
What is the metric unit of a thumb?
The answer will depend on what characteristic of the thumb you wish to measure: length, width, mass, volume, resistance to pressure, etc.The answer will depend on what characteristic of the thumb you wish to measure: length, width, mass, volume, resistance to pressure, etc.The answer will depend on what characteristic of the thumb you wish to measure: length, width, mass, volume, resistance to pressure, etc.The answer will depend on what characteristic of the thumb you wish to measure: length, width, mass, volume, resistance to pressure, etc.
Why do smaller populations need larger sample sizes?
They do not. Population size does not affect the sample size. The variability of the characteristic that you are trying to measure and the required accuracy will determine the appropriate sample size.
What is the unit measurement of plywood?
The answer depends on what characteristic you wish to measure: its length, width, thickness, density, rigidity, etc.The answer depends on what characteristic you wish to measure: its length, width, thickness, density, rigidity, etc.The answer depends on what characteristic you wish to measure: its length, width, thickness, density, rigidity, etc.The answer depends on what characteristic you wish to measure: its length, width, thickness, density, rigidity, etc.
What is the measure of a quadralateral?
Apart from the fact that the shape is called a quadrilateral, not quadralateral, the answer depends on which characteristic you want to measure.
Is a parameter a measurable characteristic of a sample?
this is false... a parameter is a measure of a mean or mode, a measurable characteristic of a sample is called a statistic.
How can you measure and describe the properties of matter?
No
