Scenario: A math professor is interested in determining the true proportion of all students at his school that prefer online math classes as opposed to in-person math classes. However, the professor didn’t have enough time to survey every student at the school. Therefore, the professor decided to survey students from each of his classes. He randomly selected 10 students from each of his 5 classes and asked them whether they would prefer to take their math classes online or in-person. 32 out of the 50 students stated that they would prefer in-person classes while 18 of the 50 stated they would prefer to take them online.    Consider the scenario above and answer the following questions: What is the population of interest? What is the parameter of interest? What is the sample statistic?
