Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Statistics can be considered as either fixed or random variables. Fixed statistics are those that have a definite value, such as the mean of a sample or the population size. Random statistics, on the other hand, are those that vary and are subject to chance, such as the outcome of a coin flip or the number of customers who enter a store in a day. Therefore, D is the best choice.
