What is the fundamental difference between descriptive statistics and inferential statistics?
A. Inferential statistics are used only in quantitative methodology where descriptive statistics are used in qualitative methodology.
B. Descriptive statistics simply DESCRIBE (capitalization for emphasis) a set of data where inferential statistics are used when one tests a sample of data that is drawn from a larger population with the purpose of INFERING (capitalization for emphasis) from the results on the sample back to the population from which the sample was drawn.
