The two good statistical questions from the options provided are:

  1. What percentage of families in Florida had a car in 1970? - This question is statistical because it seeks to gather data about a population (families in Florida) and analyze a percentage, which is a common statistical measure.

  2. How is the number of students on TikTok changing over the last 7 years? - This question is also statistical as it asks about the change over time in a specific group (students on TikTok), requiring the collection of data and analysis over a period.

The other options either refer to personal preferences, specific individual data points, or yes/no questions, which do not lend themselves to statistical analysis.
