aylor Swift wants to know the proportion of her fans who listened to her new single ME! within the first hour of it being released. In order to estimate this, she takes a sample of 150 of her fans and asks them if they listened to the song in this time period. Of the 150 fans, 135 of them (90%) responded that they did listen to the song during this time period. What is the parameter and what is its value?
a.
The parameter is the proportion of the 150 sampled Taylor Swift fans who listened to ME! within the first hour after it released, which is 135.
b.
The parameter is the group of Taylor Swift fans who were surveyed, which is 150.
c.
The parameter is the proportion of all Taylor Swift fans who listened to ME! within the first hour after it released, which is unknown.
d.
The parameter is the proportion of all Taylor Swift fans who listened to ME! within the first hour after it released, which is 0.9.

- Engineers concerned about a tower's stability have done extensive studies of its increasing tilt. Measurements of the lean of the tower over time provide much useful information. The following table gives measurements for the years 1975 to 1987. The variable "lean" represents the difference between where a point on the tower would be if the tower were straight and where it actually is. The data are coded as tenths of a millimeter in excess of 2.9 meters, so that the 1975 lean, which was 2.9647 meters, appears in the table as 647. Only the last two digits of the year were entered into the computer. 80 83 86 75 76 77 78 647 649 660 672 79 81 82 84 85 678 693 701 703 717 722 729 747 (a) Plot the data.
