For instance, if the population consists of n total individuals, m of which are male and f female (and where m + f = n), then the relative size of the two samples (x 1 = m/n males, x 2 = f/n females) should reflect this proportion.

  8. Static efficiency - Wikipedia

    The term static efficiency belongs within neoclassical economics, which argues that explicit theoretical rationale of liberalisation is to achieve an efficient (static) allocation of resources.
