A parameter describes a population. A statistic describes a sample.
its a parameter
this is false... a parameter is a measure of a mean or mode, a measurable characteristic of a sample is called a statistic.
A parameter is a number describing something about a whole population. eg population mean or mode. A statistic is something that describes a sample (eg sample mean)and is used as an estimator for a population parameter. (because samples should represent populations!)
Population Parameter
A parameter describes a population. A statistic describes a sample.
A point estimate is a single value (statistic) used to estimate a population value (parameter)true apex

Yes.
Population Parameter
It's a statistic.
The binomial distribution is defined by two parameters so there is not THE SINGLE parameter.
Parameter is any attribute Statistic are the measured values of a parameter. A statistic is a sample value such as the average height of a group of students. A parameter is a functional constant such as the mean of a normal distribution. Statistics are often used to estimate parameters. For instance, a sample average is an estimate of the mean.
