Answer:

the values of the population and sample proportions is 0.64 and 0.6 respectively

Explanation:

The computation of the values of the sample proportions and the population is shown below:

Given that

Let us assume the population be P

N= 1000

X = subjects possess specific characteristic = 640

So,

P = X ÷ N

= 640 ÷ 1000

= 0.64

And, the sample proportion is

n = 40

x = subjects possess specific characteristic = 24

p =X ÷ N

= 24 ÷ 40

= 0.6

hence, the values of the population and sample proportions is 0.64 and 0.6 respectively
