Answer 1

The correct answer is sample, population. In this scenario, Courtside Pizza would be the sample and all other Athens pizzerias would be the population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is d. sample, population.

The reason for this is that the student is collecting data about feelings towards pineapple on pizza at Courtside Pizza and wants to generalize the findings to all Athens pizzerias.
