The following graph represents the results of a survey, conducted in May 2010, in which a random sample of adult Americans was asked, €œPlease tell me whether you personally believe that in general divorce is morally acceptable or morally wrong.€

(a) What percent of the respondents believe divorce is morally acceptable?
(b) If there were 240 million adult Americans in 2010, how many believe that divorce is morally wrong?
(c) If Gallup claimed that the results of the survey indicate that 8% of adult Americans believe that divorce is acceptable in certain situations, would you say this statement is descriptive or inferential? Why?
