The population in this context refers to all the individuals who are being studied, while the sample is a subset of the population that is selected for the study.## Step 2The problem states that the pollsters are conducting a survey on 2,500 individuals. Therefore, the sample in this case is the 2,500 individuals surveyed.## Step 3The inference of interest to the pollster is to estimate the proportion of all citizens who believe the president is doing a good job. This is because the pollsters are conducting an opinion poll to determine the popularity rating of the current president.## Step 4The method of data collection employed in this case is a survey.
