The local newspaper selected 1500 residents of Claremore residents to poll about a proposed tax increase.   What is the population that they are studying?       What is the sample involved in the study?       If they chose to divide the city by elementary school attendance area and then contacted 7 people in each area asking whether they support the tax increase, what method of sampling would they be using?       If they placed a link on their website that interested parties could report whether they support the tax increase, what method of sampling would they be using?       Let’s assume that on that web page, there were 437 who supported the tax increase and 354 who did not. What is the sample proportion?
