The use of a small number of people to represent a greater population is called sampling. The sample can be randomly chosen so that it is a reliable reflection of most of the population.
A small number of people used to represent an entire population is called a sample. Typically the sample reflects characteristics of the larger population from which it is drawn.
A smaller subgroup of the population being studied is called a sample. This sample is selected to represent the larger population and allows researchers to draw conclusions and make inferences about the entire group based on the characteristics of the sample.
A senator represents the entire population of a state
Sample-a small group selected by researchers to represent the most important characteristics of an entire population. (according to my book)
A subset of measurements from a population is a smaller group of data points selected from the entire group of data points in the population. This subset is chosen to represent the overall characteristics of the larger population and is used for analysis or inference about the population as a whole.

Senators are the members of the House that are chosen for a state's entire population. Representatives are chosen to represent a portion of their state.
The entire group that the researcher is interested in is called the population or the target population.
a summary measure that is computed to describe a characteristic of an entire population is called:
Yes , because they were elected by the population of the states to meet there. I hope this was helpful !! ~AC
The population of the former province of Holland is about 6.3 million. The population of the entire country, properly called the Netherlands, is about 18.9 million.
In statistics, "mu" is often used to represent the population mean of a variable. It represents the average value of a given data set in the entire population.
