Write a meaningful paragraph that includes the following six terms: sample, population, confidence level, estimate, mean, margin of error.

A “meaningful paragraph” is a coherent piece writing in an appropriate context that uses all of the listed words. The paragraph should show that you understand the meaning of the terms and their relationship to one another. A sequence of sentences that just define the terms is not a meaningful paragraph. When choosing a context, think carefully about the terms you need to use. Choosing a good context will make writing a meaningful paragraph easier.
