Question

fill in the blank. a______is a single value used to approximate a population parameter. a is a single value used to approximate a population parameter. point estimate sample size continuity correction confidence interval

Explanation:

A point estimate is a single value that is used to approximate a population parameter. For example, the sample mean \(\bar{x}\) is a point - estimate of the population mean \(\mu\). A sample size is the number of observations in a sample. Continuity correction is used when approximating a discrete distribution with a continuous one (e.g., approximating a binomial distribution with a normal distribution). A confidence interval is an interval of values within which the population parameter is likely to fall, not a single value.

Answer:

point estimate
