A coffee shop owner is interested in determining what people think about the new coffee flavor. Which of the following is the population in this situation?

Question

all customers who did not buy the new coffee
all customers who bought the new coffee
100 random customers
the first 50 customers who bought the new coffee

Answer 1

In this situation, the population refers to the entire group that the coffee shop owner is interested in gathering opinions from about the new coffee flavor. Therefore, the correct answer would be:

all customers who bought the new coffee

This group represents the population of interest since they are the ones who have had the opportunity to try the new flavor and provide feedback. The other options either focus on a subset of customers or those who did not experience the new flavor.
