Question

question 7 of 10
the estimate obtained from a sample of which of the following sizes would most likely be closest to the actual parameter value of a population?
a. 75
b. 15
c. 150
d. 45

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the relationship between sample size and closeness to population parameter

In statistics, a larger sample size generally provides a better estimate of the population parameter. This is because a larger sample is more likely to capture the characteristics of the entire population.

Step2: Compare the given sample sizes

We have sample sizes \(n_1 = 75\), \(n_2=15\), \(n_3 = 150\), \(n_4=45\).
Since \(15<45<75<150\)

Answer:

C. 150
