Maxwell Herrera · Answer 1

Answer: B. Data that were obtained from an entire population

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter is a numerical measurement that gives us information about some characteristics of a population. (i. e Data that were obtained from an entire population) for example: a study of all 1000 students in a school, finds that 40% have a mathematics textbook. This is a parameter because it gives a particular information about the whole population.

A a numerical measurement describing some characteristics of a sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter is any property that can enable you to define or group a particular system.

Option 'a' clearly gave a definition that indicates parameter because it has a numeric value of some kind of sample characteristics.
