3- If all the college students in this university are the population, then college students in this class that live on campus would be an example of ________.
Answer: Sample ( because it is a part of population )
4- The basic difference between a point estimate and a confidence interval is
Answer: Point estimate gives a single particular value of the population parameter, and onfidence Interval gives the range of values which contains the population parameter.
