The population is all the players in the softball league. The sample is the 45 players Maritza chose and asked about basketball.

The size of the population is given as 225. The size of the sample is 45.
Can you please further explain?
Sure, a population is the entire group of individuals or objects that we want to study or make predictions about. In this case, the population is all the players in the softball league.

A sample is a subset of the population that we actually observe or measure. It is used to make inferences or draw conclusions about the population. In this case, Maritza chose 45 players from the softball league to ask about basketball.

The size of the population is given as 225, which means there are a total of 225 players in the softball league. The size of the sample is 45 because Maritza chose 45 players from the population for her study.
