Solution

The correct answer is b. Inferential Statistics.

Inferential statistics allow you to make predictions or inferences about a larger population based on a sample of data taken from that population. This branch of statistics takes data from a sample and makes inferences about the larger population from which the sample is drawn. It is the means by which we take observations from the sample, make an assumption about the population's characteristics, and test the validity of our assumption.
