Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two types of statistical inference are confidence interval estimation and hypothesis testing. Sample and population estimation are related to estimation, while interval estimation for a mean and point estimation for a proportion are specific examples of estimation techniques. Likewise, independent and dependent sample estimation are specific cases of confidence interval estimation and hypothesis testing. Therefore, the best choice is B, which encompasses the two main aspects of statistical inference.
