Answer 1

1. Statistics is a measure that calculated small or large samples.

So the correct options are:

3. A statistical measure that is calculated from or used to describe a large sample.

4. A statistical measure that is calculated from or used to describe a sample.

2) Parameters are numbers that summarize data for an entire population.

So the correct options are:

1. A statistical measure that is calculated from or used to describe a population.

4. A statistical measure that is calculated from or used to describe a small population.

3) If there is a large data set then the best measure of location is average.

So the correct option is:

mean.
