Answer: D) sample: local listings and internet sites

population: all used passenger cars

Explanation:

A sample is a subset of items from a larger population.

A population includes all of the elements from a set of data.

Cynthia wants to buy a used passenger car.

All available used cars is the POPULATION

Cynthia looks at local listings and on internet sites.

This is a subset of all available used cars so this is the SAMPLE

Furthermore, she may not find what she is looking for and may expand her subset to include used car lots, etc.
