| List-I | List-II | ||
| Terms | definition | ||
| (A) | POPULATION | (I) | Measurable characteristics of the population such as mean, variance, standard deviation etc. of population |
| (B) | SAMPLE | (II) | Measurable characteristics of the sample such as mean, variance, standard deviation etc. of a sample |
| (C) | PARAMETER | (III) | Finite set of statistical individuals drawn from a population for investigation. |
| (D) | STATISTIC | (IV) | Collection of objects having the same characteristics |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
(A) POPULATION
This matches (IV) Collection of objects having the same characteristics. The population is the whole group under study.
(B) SAMPLE
This matches (III) Finite set of statistical individuals drawn from a population for investigation. A sample is the part of the population actually examined.
(C) PARAMETER
This matches (I). A parameter is a measure (mean, variance, standard deviation) of the population.
(D) STATISTIC
This matches (II). A statistic is the same kind of measure computed from a sample.
So the matching is (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II).
